This week's books and more, unfairly (or sometimes fairly) neglected, or simply those the reviewers below think you might find of some interest (or, infrequently, you should be warned away from); certainly, most weeks we have a few not at all forgotten titles...if I've missed your review or someone else's, please let me know in comments.

Thanks, Todd! Happy June!
Thanks again, Todd.
Thank you both.
Facebook has again (as in not for the first time) claimed that my post about this blogpost goes Against Facebook Community Standards, and has blocked the original mailing.
So I removed Patti's book's image from the resend, and put on the F&SF cover. No blocking action so far.
It's not as if Facebook bothers to tell me, or I think anyone, what rule or ukase has been broken by circulating this list, either.
