... and a decree went out from Fivemack, that all books were to be counted

Hmm. I've noticed a few gaps in my bookcase, and I can't quite remember to whom I've lent what.

[livejournal.com profile] cartesiandaemon has my copies of "The Well of Ascension" and "The Hero of Ages"

[livejournal.com profile] ceb has the two Cat Valente books

[livejournal.com profile] pseudomonas has quite a lot of books and I didn't keep a record of exactly which; certainly includes "Red Seas Under Red Skies" and "Snake Agent".

Somebody must have my Sarah Monette books, but I'm not sure who.

I ought to lend [livejournal.com profile] hilarityallen "Dragonfly Falling", the second volume of "Empire in Black and Gold"

In the other direction, I have and have read [livejournal.com profile] naath's "Glorifying Terrorism" and [livejournal.com profile] despotliz's "The Graveyard Book" and "The Gone-Away World"; I have and have not read Jon Amery's "The Twilight Watch" and Liz's "The Fortress of Solitude".

If you have borrowed books from me, or have lent me books which aren't on my list, would you mind leaving a comment?

I suspect it probably is mine, it inspired the post but I forgot to mention it. I'll have to check; half my Dunnett is in one place and the other half in another, and my attitude to it is a bit ambivalent. Possibly I need to buy the rest of the series and then spend a week with few non-Dunnett distractions; it's one of those series where it's a lot easier to keep going than to start.

(I may be the only person who dropped out of the Patrick O'Brien series at book #11 or so)

Oh good, I'd hate to think someone else was cursing me for never returning books :)

I think I'll be happy to leave it with just this one book, unless it has a particularly cliffhangerish ending. I am enjoying it mostly, but I think I'm reading it a bit too quickly when a bit too tired, and finding some of it a bit hard to follow as a result.
