Somnology!

Having finished up five books, we’re going to take a week off to let everybody acquire the book that marks the halfway point: The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections. This next one is similar to Dream Country insofar as it’s a bunch of one-shots.

So… what does everybody think so far?

(If you absolutely positively have to talk about some major spoiler in comments, please rot13.)

It has also come up that some wish to have a place where they can yell “DIBS!” I suppose this is as good a place to yell “dibs!” as any. (One should also keep in mind that just because someone yelled “DIBS!” on your favorite book, the one that you were hoping to recap, know that you can still submit one. We’ll read and argue over that one too.) Dibs, so far, behind the cut:

Ken wants #31, Three Septembers and a January (This is part of Fables and Reflections: numbering is all hinky for these books)

Ken wants #40, The Parliament of Rooks (This, too, is part of Fables and Reflections)

Jason Tank wants #41, Chapter One of Brief Lives

Mike Schilling wants #42 (the answer), Chapter Two of Brief Lives

Russell Saunders wants #50, Ramadan (This, too, is part of Fables and Reflections)

Katherine wants #53, Hob’s Leviathan

Reformed Republican wants #54, The Golden Boy

Ken wants #55, Cerements

Ken wants #56, World’s End

Alan Scott wants #75, The Tempest (schedule permitting)
