Erm, how? If the NUMBER ONE book is a fantasy novel, that seems to rather invalidate any "Speculative scots hate fantasy!" claims, doesn't it?

You like boo...I don't see what the big deal is. You like books that turn out to be horror so what? You run a great blog, you can't be expected to like or choose books that other people feel you should like. After all it is your blog and you're free to write and choose what feels right to you.The Fantasizernoreply@blogger.com
