D'oh!

I am a total moron.

When I slapped together that Book List a couple of days ago, I neglected two novels.

One, which would go in the "Haven't Started Yet" list, is The Hedgehog, the Fox, and the Magister's Pox by Stephan Jay Gould. The other, which would go in the "Recently Completed" list, is Live From Golgotha by Gore Vidal.

The latter, I might add, had me howling in laughter. Gods, that's a great book. And I simply adore how well researched it is also.

I am now officially a Gore Vidal fangirl.

GORE VIDAL. *snrk* I like him calling Peter "Rocky." AND NERO. *cracks up*

... Read Lincoln and see if you, too, do not worship William Seward. Seward is one of the few historical characters I can think of who reads HISTORICALLY ACCURATELY in a novel. He really WAS that witty and clever. Yeeeee!

*grins* Oh, yes... that part with Nero was delightful. And Timothy... no one ever listened when he told them that A) he really prefered women to men, and B) if he was going to have sex with a man, he'd rather be on top. Poor little uke... ^^

*makes a note* I'll see about picking up a copy of Lincoln the next time I have money for books. And I'll be sure to keep an eye out for Seward. ^____^
