I just finished Carnival, by Elizabeth Bear. As I was reading it, I got the sneaking suspicion that [spoilery thing] was going to happen, because it always happens in books like this. This pisses me off. Anyway, [spoilery thing] didn't happen, and lo! angels sang. Then I went and looked at what she had to say about her book (because I always read reviews after I read a book), and all I can say is God bless you, Elizabeth Bear, I now have utter faith in you.
