Five Things I Am Loving At The Moment
I’m loving a lot of things at the moment, so here’s five of them.
Covers That Change the Genre and/or Gender
For me the best cover songs are ones that the cover artist makes their own, and right now I’m listening to a couple of classical crossover artists covering pop/rock/whatever songs. Whether it’s Josh Groban covering Linkin Park or Katherine Jenkins covering Evanescence, it adds a new aspect to the song not to mention it’s great for writing/character playlists.
Superhero Novels
I love superheroes. I love novels. Sometimes these two great tastes can be found together. A couple I have read:
- The Rise of Renegade X - Chelsea M. Campbell
- Hero - Perry Moore
- Soon I Will Be Invincible - Austin Grossman
- After The Golden Age - Carrie Vaughn
There are more out there: I am looking forward to reading the Masked anthology in particular.
Kimi Ni Todoke: From Me To You
I don’t really read a lot of stuff that’s pure romance, but Kimi Ni Todoke is my major exception. This manga is frustrating in all the right ways - most importantly the part where I eagerly gobble a volume down only to be very upset that I don’t have the next one on me right now.
My eReader
Reasons why I love my ereader:
- It saves on space.
- Books are cheaper.
- Some books are free!
- I don’t have to limit my options when it comes to travelling. TAKE ALL THE BOOKS!
- I can borrow books from the library without leaving the house. And because I have a passport I can borrow books from the Singapore Library as well!
- It’s light and I never have to worry about bookmarks - which is great if I want to read something like The Passage.
Finally I have broken away from the traditional style and this is the result.
