I have just got to the point where Ivan and Tej are getting married (to save her from killing herself so as to avid capture - long story) and him from being arrested and I am giggling so loud, it should not be allowed (while shipping like mad at the same time). It's been years since I loved a Bujold book so badly! I have to say, Ivan is remindinge ( Read more... )

This time it's not all romance novels though mostly it still is (what can I say, on a beach vacation, my brain is on a downtime as well).

Secrets of a Summer Night, Lisa Kleypas - first in her Wallflower series, I really really liked this one. Annabelle is a very very impoverished aristocrat who desperately needs to marry into money - her time is ( Read more... )

I have been on a fantasy/scifi kick lately and read a number of fun things:

( Books that aren't Elantris )

Because Mr. Mousie is a Saint among Men, he babysat Baby Mousie while I went to see Avatar.

I have decided to resume my rewatch of Farscape, starting with the ep I stopped at last time - Season 3 finale, Dog With Two Bones. Oddly, this was the very first FS ep I saw and it hooked me. Five minutes and I ( Read more... )

Oh God, I knew it.

I knew it.

Watched Serenity last night and now am busy rabidly reading Mal/Inara fic and plan to spend the evening rewatching the show.

Heh. Firefly is like Farscape for me: I can never have just a little bit, I always fall off the ledge.

Mr. Mousie and I had a scifi night tonight. First we (re)watched Serenity for the umpteenth time - God, how I love this movie! The only downside is that watching it makes me so blindingly angry that 15 eps and a movie is all we got and instead we got the patheticness of Dollhouse (Dollhouse renewed, even, when Firefly wasn't. UGH ( Read more... )

Mr. Mousie and I just finished watching The Right Stuff, a 1980s movie adaptation of one of my favorite books, Tom Wolfe's non-fiction account of the first Americans in space and the start of the space program ( Read more... )
