I just finished a reread of all of Tamora Pierce, except for Tortall And Other Lands, which I'm currently reading. (And it's great.) Other things I've read recently.... Mira Grant's limited edition hardback When Will You Rise (which contains Countdown and Apocalypse Scenario #687: The Box, both short stories available as ebooks), which was as fantastic as everything else she writes is. Karen Healey's The Shattering, which I ended up by a quirk of timing reading most of on Halloween and was excellent and kind of creepy. An anthology called Troll's Eye View that takes fairy tales and retells them from the point of view of the "villains". Also limited edition hardback, Seanan McGuire's Velveteen vs. The Junior Super Patriots, collection of short stories about a former child superhero THEY'RE SO GOOD I LOVE THEM.
Huh, I've read a fair number of new things recently! Unusual. Most of the reading I do is rereading - when I finish Tortall And Other Lands, I'm going to go into another reread of the entire Discworld series. I reread my favorite things (Tortall, Circle, Discworld, Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Chrestomanci, Old Kingdom, etc) at least once a year. It's one of the benefits of having a terrible memory.
