Still in book news, am about a third of the way through Deep Wizardry, which is fighting me. I can't figure out why I can't seem to get into this book, there's nothing wrong with it. I just...don't care that much. I loved the first book in the series! Why can't I love this one? Most distressing.

Because the story doesn't really get compelling until about halfway through, probably. Keep going.

Okay, good. I was hoping it wasn't just me. Onward!

I don't recall it being "un-compelling" at the beginning, but I can certainly confirm that it gets MUCH MORE COMPELLING around the halfway mark. *g*

(I have not read more Connie Willis yet. Am stuck in Post Captain, still, which is a lovely read but very long.)

Hey SPN starts Thursday. Will you be watching online? Or must I keep very, very mum around you for a few weeks?

Ha, I just sent you an e-mail two seconds ago.

It took me a while to get through Master and Commander. Those books just don't bear reading quickly, I think.

I hope to watch SPN online, if all goes to plan. I'm told that the CW puts up the eps on their site sometime during the weekend after they air, although I've also heard that they are not always very reliable about keeping to this schedule. We shall see. With luck I'll only have to be wary of spoilers on Fridays, and then I can join in the squee on weekends.

To be honest, I still like the first and third best of all the series, myself.

I think it's available for the taking, though credit is appreciated. If you want to comment, here's the post it came from at youngwizards: http://community.livejournal.com/youngwizards/39528.html

Unfortunately I haven't found the source-post for this one again yet.
