Hiatus

I've fallen a bit behind in reviews because of some extremely taxing days at work lately. Partially as a result of this, I've decided to take, for the first time in over two years, a bit of a break from Speculative Fiction Junkie.


This decision was prompted by a number of things, including a general sense of fatigue with my various obligations, a desire to pursue other hobbies like learning more French, and an increasingly persistent suspicion that touting the virtues of books that few can afford to buy when they're lucky enough to find them at all may not enhance to any meaningful degree the likelihood that those works will end up in the hands of new readers. I may have more to say about this later...

Until then, happy reading everyone and I'll see you after the break, in perhaps a week or a month or two...

Similar story with me Ben, must be the weather. Enjoy your break, no doubt you will be back bigger and better than ever.

Cheers
