In a Nutshell: Books (Storm Front [Dresden Files Book 1] by Jim Butcher)

...I said, coming back for more. Probably a larger problem is that I don't really buy into the, ah, authority group(1) and its place in the world, but we'll see how that turns out in further books. And hey, nothing's perfect, right?

Books about Perth, and does my head look big in this?

... pasta etc, but also made me think back to my youth and the fact that I don't remember ever reading any YA books set in Perth that I could identify with. In general, I can't think of any books (or fiction in general) set in Perth which are about normal urban life (especially from a female pov), they're all about The...
