Trends and Tamora Pierce... with an Interlude from Octavian Nothing

I've been reading three things this week: Tamora Pierce, books regarding the history of vampire fiction, and The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing.
Octavian Nothing is for book club. It is very good, but a little strange. Morbid, sort of. Haven't gotten very far in it, but I'd recommend it for those who aren't easily grossed out.
Vampire books are disturbing. There is a percentage of the book I'm currently looking at - Our Vampires, Ourselves - that feels like it's persuading me to believe in vampires. I don't believe in vampires outside the imagination. Thanks, but no thanks.
Tamora Pierce marathon still going strong. 15 down, 12 to go.
