Loooove Susanna Clarke! When my spouse recommended Jonathan Strange to me, it was your endorsement that convinced me I would like it. And it’s one of my favorite books now.
I’m certainly not getting rid of over 2,000 books in a few years that are sf&f books. I think my 82 yo mom would think that’s nuts, too. She’s currently working through the complete C. J. Cherryh bibliography I loaned her. She’s already read all of Katherine Kurtz and other sf&f authors.
