*perks up* What book on Hawai'ian legends? I had one, but it seemed sanitised which makes me sad. They were fascinating, but I kept having that nagging feeling... And that artwork is gorgeous. ^-^ *goes back to the rest of the books mentioned*
I think I need to learn how to tell what kind of writer a person is. Your one-line description of So Yesterday may very well sum up why I disliked it way better than I managed.
The Last Hero is also the book that finally got me into Discworld novels. /random bit of Shanra-trivia. I heart the illustrations. My copy is big and bulky and of completely disproportionate height to the other books and I simply refuse to see if the smaller one matches the height. I like my big, pretty illustrations too much.
The fact that you've read these authors and books now means you might have more space to diversify your reading in other months, though, doesn't it? *trying to be positive*
Did you get most of the birds you saw identified in the end? (Also, I envy you/am really happy for you. That must've been a gorgeous vacation. ^-^)
