Heather's Summer Reading List & Plans
...which are subject to change, but oh wells.
So I have officially been back at Ye Ol' Hell Pitt for a week. It is as horrible as always.
But I have decided to start a list of things to do for the summer, like reading, watching, listening, etc.
TNT is a lovely channel and is playing old episodes of Charmed. I bought season 1 a while ago, and am in the process of watching that, and TNT is showing season 6 ( I think) in the afternoon (Excalibur was today!) and I watched what I wanted from season 7 already on YouTube, with 8 to come.
TNT also plays old Bones and USA plays old House so I have lots to catch up on TV wise.
I ordered Dr. Horrible, since I've only seen parts of it, as well as Firefly from the library. Once I watch those I'll order Serenity too. They're both by the creator of Buffy and I've heard good thongs about them.
Libraries are nice when one is broke.
Tamora Pierce has come out with a new Tortall book that I have ordered from the library cuz I don't have money right now. I plan on buying it anyways, but still... I also have yet to read The Will of the Empress even though it came out in '05, so I might order the book-on-tape version of it. I saw that Full Cast Audio has been producing the Immortals Series of hers, so I might library order that too.
I love Tammy Pierce.
I also really like Howl's Moving Castle, book version, which has a companion book and a sequel that I own but haven't finishes either. I forget everything that is different from book and Miyazaki versions, but don't feel like re-reading, so I might order the audio version of the book of that as well. Then depending on what I feel like I will read or order the audio versions of the next two books in that universe.
I realized yesterday that it has almost been ten years since I discovered Anne McCaffrey's Dragonrider of Pern series/universe. And with her son coming out with new stories, I have decided that I should re-read the books over the summer. But then I thought that I really don't want to carry them around and actually read them. And then I thought about how I never listened to any of the book-on-tape (or CD) versions of them. So instead of rereading them, I have ordered the CD version of the first book she came out with in the series and will listen to the books in published order if I can.
So that is my CD/book and TV plans. I haven't thought about what games to play for the summer, or what anime to order from the library.
I do know that I plan on going to Akron Public Library on June 3rd for Lauren Myrtle, Womping Willows, and Justin (enter name I can't spell)'s tour stop. Yay to Potter Rockers.
