I really really want to read this book: Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.

I somehow suspect this won't be a book for the Kindle, though...

Cool moths.

Dumbledore is gay, huh?
Jo also said after revelation: "You needed something to keep you going for the next 10 years! ...Oh, my god, the fan fiction now, eh?"Great. What this world needs. More slash fiction. *twitch* Good interview. If anyone can explain the "a goat that was easy to keep clean" reference, I'd appreciate it ( Read more... )
