    I didn't read this book, and I don't know the author.

    I'm reading a book in english written by Sarah Waters: Fingersmith. I've already read books of this author, but always in French, and I have to say, the style in the original language is kind of weird. She uses a syntax I had never seen in English, but it's not complicated to understand. And I don't understand why sometimes it's written "she don't" instead of "she doesn't". I thought at first it was a typing error, but I saw it several times, so if someone can explain to me. Apart from the that, I like the story, it's beginning interesting.

    I haven't read Les Fourmis yet. It's one of those books that I really want to read, but I'm kind of afraid because it's so popular!
    Today, I'll start The House of Silk by Anthony Horowitz.

    I should begin the third book of Martin's series in its original language, but I met on Friday evening the cartoonist of the comic book Herakles. So I'm spending all my week end with exclusively myth readings. Yesterday, that was the comic Ulysse, les chants du retour by Jean Harambat. I appreciate my reading, but I didn't think that is a sort of documentary film. It melts fiction very respectful with the original story by Homer and commentaries and interpretations from some  book professionals. Merely poetic, yes, but not for the all readers.
    Today I continue a book which is on hold for little time : La Toison d'or de Robert Graves. I just discover that this author was an English man and that his book have had a great importance for some people in filmmaking. I never heard about it before I began my searches on myth books on the last month. Even during my studies on myths during my university days. Maybe because it's a novel and not an essay... Yet, this book has a strange structure in the narrative progress. Sometimes I really think I read an essay. The presentation of his vision about the evolution of the religions in Greece is very educational. It's a bit austere at times. Nevertheless, we understand better the construction of the polytheist religion of Ancient Greeks and why there is so many versions of same legends or gods. I understand more about the myth of Herakles also.

    edit : sorry, Mr Graves wasn't English but Irish. That was mixed in my head, sorry.

    I loved The house of Silk by Anthony Horowitz, so now I'm reading Moriarty. It's not as good as the first, but interesting. After I 'll read Fire study in english by Maria V. Snyder.
