Neverwhere
is what I'm reading now. And I have to post my thoughts here because I don't know very many people (on Facebook, such as) who have the knowledge of both the book and of London tube stations to understand my thoughts.

Zodiac series
I drew Pisces tonight! And inked it! I like it even more than Aquarius.
And no, I'm not going in order on purpose. Next will probably be Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Scorpio.
