Reading Room XII - Younger Lads

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

So - would we like a Reading Room for September?

And if we would, are we happy that our theme is the one that came second in the recent poll - Younger Lads? (Hmmn, do we need to define "younger lads"? I'm thinking pre-CI5 days = younger lads? And stories don't necessarily have to be set when they were younger, but need to refer substantially back to those days, tell us something about the way they grew up?)

And if we are - who will suggest stories that could be reviewed/discussed/chatted about, and who will volunteer to write a review/discuss/chat post about their choice of story? *g*

If not already taken, I'd be willing to review "So Much for Wishes," on the 27th. I've got company right now, so any sooner would be something of a problem.

Oh good - I was just wondering whether I needed to cancel it for another month's rest!

Thank you - the 27th is brilliant. *g*

By a remarkable coincidence, 'So Much For Wishes' has arrived in my circuit library batch this week!

HUGE apologies - September is always busy for me and this one even more than usual, so I won't have time to play!

September seems to be busy for everyone - you're the only person who's replied even to say no thanks...for which thank you! *g*

I would like to review The Missing Piece by Bluespirit (written under the pseudonym Cassidy Collins).
Next week would be nice.
