Hello, my name is Seanan, and I'm a book slut.

Jan 16, 2008 07:01

So every day, I write what I'm currently reading in my planner, for 'Seanan is a very odd duck who sometimes likes to have a disturbingly clear snapshot of what she was doing last week, and also needs some mechanism to keep her from rereading The Stand on a monthly basis' purposes. Yesterday, I counted up the books for 2008-so-far ( Read more... )

reading, book slut

Wow. I'm only at 11 books for the year so far (all 16 days of it). I must be slacking! :-)

It helps that I've been reading a lot of Leisure Horror, aka, 'Seanan's equivalent of supermarket romances'. I keep meaning to post about this line, because it is mind-blowingly bad in some ways; I gulp them down like candy, and have been known to go through two in a single day.

So do fan fictions count? I sat down and read the entire "Sailor Nobody" fanfiction today, and it was at least as long as most short books.

My feeling as well.

My wife and I are moving soon so we've started packing our books. Between that and an increasing workload my reading is lacking lately. :-(

I really need to check if the next Dresden is out...

It could be! Damn. I have read...no books, so far.

Unrelatedly, do you know about this? I have been urged to go. They'll be filming for a DVD and everything.

Actually, I know about that so much that Chris and I already have tickets! If you wish to obtain tickets, you could totally join us and stand on line and be enthralled by the MAGIC OF COULTON.

Perhaaaaps I will!

Also, the opening band rules.

Mmmm, books.

It's alright to be a book slut. Honest. :D

...don't mind the randomly selected icon. (It seems fitting somehow)

Do let us know what you think of The Child Garden, it's one of the handful of books I relate to the way you talk about relating to IT.

I've actually read it before -- ladymondegreen loaned me hers, and I've been looking for it ever since. So happy!

Wait, is that Willow photoshopped to be a Trill, or...?

muzadi January 16 2008, 15:45:31 UTC

There probably is a support group for this. ;-)

Not that I'm one to talk at all.
