things that make me wince

The book I am reading this week is "This Scepter'd Isle", by Mercedes Lackey and Roberta Gellis. And it's not terrible. It's elves and mortal politics in the time of Henry VIII! That lends it some cool points. It has crossover potential -- I keep imagining the Doctor or some of the folks from the Star Trek universe stumbling across the Bazaar of the Bizarre. *g* Fun stuff!

But I want to cry every time they refer to a female elven character as a she-Sidhe. :|

Pegasus, by Robin McKinley

Robin McKinley, you have betrayed me. It's great that you wanted to write a sequel, okay? But that doesn't mean you're not supposed to finish the first book! >:|
