41

[lathany]

Another year and this time I've reached a prime number. Today was a rather quieter birthday than 40, not least because I was working. Still with the good presents and yummy cake, though.

My presents:
- The Beatles Rockband
- Grim Tuesday by Garth Nix
- Storm Front by Jim Butcher
- The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch
- Halting State by Charles Stross
- Rats Saw God by Rob Thomas (he of Veronica Mars fame).

(About half of those worked their way onto my list after recommendations from al_fruitbat and _alanna - many thanks.)

The birthday cake was bateleur's special chocolate cake (with cinnamon and cloves and sultanas) - both Bea and Ryan approved.
