I logged my review for Ficciones, for January. My book is an omnibus edition with other story collections in it, so I have not finished the whole book yet, but I read the Ficciones stories, and a couple extra.

February's book is Suite Francaise,

yay. Not really looking forward to reading Updike, again, but at least I can finish it and cross it off. February's book, Suite Francaise, was good.
