must . . . stop . . .
May. 3rd, 2014 07:14 pmNote to self: when you're reading a series of books and they start to annoy you to the point where you're dreading the next one, it's okay to stop reading them. *headdesk*
The books in question are Barbara Cleverly's Joe Sandilands mystery novels, set during the 1920s and taking place variously in India, England, and France. I kept reading after the first one because ( major spoilers )
Definitely time to put them down and read some fanfic instead. Fic in fandoms I don't really know, so I don't have to care too much. Stargate: Atlantis fits the bill perfectly--I know enough about the show to have a sense of who the characters are and what's going on, but that's all. And the fandom has had a lot of good writers. Off to search AO3.
