So, I finished Kushiel's Dart and have started on the sequel. It mighta started out feeling a bit like Memoirs but by halfway through it was all politics and intrigue and I really enjoyed it a lot. And, uh, can always read more Joscelin, oh yes I can. <3 The sequel took off running with the politics, though, so we'll see how it goes ( Read more... )

So, I've been sucked into Downton Abbey, and I'm really enjoying my stay, I must say. Unfortunately now everything I read or think ends up sounding posh British in my head. But if you've got time and like British dramas, I would definitely give it a try. It's by the same person what did Gosford Park, but doesn't bore or disappoint me like that ( Read more... )

I got my grubby little hands on the 6th Kencyrath novel, Honor's Paradox, and aaaargh! I don't know when the next one comes out and I wanna read it SO BAD. This one was too short dangnabbit, and it ended in a way that frustrated me greatly.

Don't get me wrong, I very much enjoyed it. I don't enjoy that it ended, and ended there. It's the ( Read more... )

I have been devouring the Kencyrath novels this week. I've already blasted through three books and am halfway done with the fourth. What am I gonna do when I gotta wait for December for the newest book to come out ( Read more... )

Took a while, but the Count of Monte Cristo is finally finished! Despite the ridiculously dense prose and dialogue (coupled with some genuinely humorous moments), it was a thoroughly enjoyable read.

Now onto Don Quixote!

...Anyone know where I can find eps of Gankutsuou?

So, upon watching the first episode of Gankutsuou, I have some observations ( Read more... )

Is it normal to feel like an uneducated idiot while reading the Count of Monte Cristo, or is it just me?

Seriously haven't read a book this dense in a long time.

I had forgotten just how awesome the Bartimaeus series was. Just finished rereading it today, and, man. It was a shame I was at work cause I prolly woulda teared up. >.>

And now Bartimaeus is bouncing around in my head, but I don't have time to properly play the one character in the one RPG I'm already in. ;_; But can you imagine, the ( Read more... )

The first Fairy Tail opening song is really fricken catchy. >.>

Tomorrow I'm off on the 職員旅行 up to...Ishikawa-ken, I believe. I asked why exactly we were going there today, and my teacher said because there's a good onsen (which I can't even enjoy this week haojshdouahoa), a nice brewery, and "delicious beer." Oh yeah, and a good seafood ( Read more... )

I really wanna finish the Animorphs books. I ended up checking out the TV Tropes page and skipped most things what dealt with the later books, but I glanced enough to make me insanely curious and a little fearfulAlso, I read the first Percy Jackson book (like...weeks ago, hehe) and I would like to read more of those as well. I so like when modern ( Read more... )
