Critera and Priorities

Neither of which need adjusting.

So I'm only a thin clip of pages into The Panic Virus by Seth Mnookin, and I already thoroughly approve of this book because:

1) The author used the term "brouhahah", which is an awesome term and should be used more often.
2) He has already referenced Stephen Motherfucking Colbert.

I just finished The Waters Rising by Sheri S. Tepper, and I'm on the fence as to whether or not to write a review. Seems the Amazonites (especially those familiar with her other work; this is my first of her novels, including the prequel to this book) aren't too impressed and seem to think she's rehashing older works, something to which I can't really speak, obviously. I found it enjoyable and liked her take on some old tropes, though by no means perfect.
