I loved Children of God, as I did its predecessor, The Sparrow. To my surprise, I loved Remnant Population. It made me weep! I also read most of Slow River, by Nicola Griffith, but I didn't finish it until 8/1, so it will go on next months list

The stats:
I Just Have to Read... 12/12 :-)
Grand Master 8/12
LGBT 9/12
MasterWorks 10/12
WoGF 10/12
2nd Best 10/12
Fantasia 12/12 :-)
Elizabeth Noun 2/3
12 Awards in 12 Months 5/12
The Number ...3 4/9

26 virtual books to go,16 actual. I've only posted one review from last months list. I have two others written but not yet posted, and 4 unfinished.
