A bit of a light month, what with all the re-reads. Other than the Russell novels, the standout was obviously JKR's The Casual Vacancy. I wasn't totally blown away -- I found the realism jarred against the satire, and the ending didn't thrill me, but it was a good read, and I'm eager to see what she writes next.
