I bet these other sites would comment, but don't want to put their staff (or advertising income) at risk.

The Toast - "A Woman Too Soon":
My one complaint about the novel (other than the "Yeth", thanks for reminding me of it, sigh) is the xenophobia and jingoism expressed in the local community. The local pacifists are demonized, even by characters we are supposed to like, and there's no sympathy for anyone who is not completely on board with the war. It's the sort of thing that tends to happen more often in work written contemporaneously with the war (rather than afterwards, when the blood has cooled, so to speak), but it never ceases to disturb me.
Anyway, I did not know that "The Blythes are Quoted" is now available in the US. The last time I looked, it was only available in Canada, so yay for that.

Getting old kinda sucks, ladies. Except for the awesome parts, I mean. And for being alive, also good. But not the part where advertisers and employers and bartenders think I'm invisible. That part's not so great.

Also, my brother spent a summer doing climber rescue in Yosemite. The worst part was apparently doing the accident cleanup afterwards, when they had to go find the... bits... of people on the granite cliffs, and collect them. Sometimes they had to compete with yellow-jackets. Ewwww.
