reading (first two for 2015)
1. H.P. Lovecraft "The Complete Works of H.P. Lovecraft"
I'd been working at this one for quite a while. I hadn't read any Lovecraft before, so didn't know what to expect. It wasn't as scary as I expected. The language was at times delightful and at times tiring. I enjoyed the traces of Lovecraftian humor immensely and wish he had indulged that aspect of his writing a bit more.
2. Asimov's February 2015
I really enjoyed this issue. It was a distinctly love themed fitting for the month, but it was distinctly not all chocolates and flowers. It covered a wide variety of aspects of love and relationships. A very good mixture of thoughtful stories.
