I've started watching Death Note. I read a chunk of the manga years ago but lost interest after (spoilery event). I'm really enjoying it now - amused how in some ways it feels like the movie Catch Me If You Can. Both of them involve a battle of wits between the legal system and a young criminal.
I'm reading a book I picked up cheap at Goodwill: Unlikely Friendships, by Jennifer S. Holland. It's about cross-species friendships between animals. Very cute, not very in-depth.
I'm sticking my toe in into the world fanfiction based Patricia McKillip's Riddle-Master trilogy. Yuletide has a trove. I'm struck by how female-focused it is so far. There are plenty of female character in Riddle-Master, and the middle book is narrated by one, but I wouldn't call it female-focused. After all, the climax of the middle book is a confrontation between two male characters that the female narrator just happens to witness. But the fanfiction is a different story.
