I note the Otherland series on your shelves. I'm impressed you made it through them, I abandoned it 1/2-way through...

I liked them, though I do agree they could have benefited from some editing. You can click on the pictures to go to the larger sizes and read all our titles if you're so inclined ;)

No, it'll just depress me due to the fact that I've gotten so out of the habit of reading anything over the past few years. Although I guess I never was a very *complex* reader since pretty much everything on my shelf back in Canada was some sort of Doctor Who novel...

I really enjoyed the Otherland series!

the purple bush is buddliea, or 'butterfly bush'. it looks like it's the dark night variety, but that might be lighting.

Seconded -- definitely buddleia. The pink flowers are echinacea. :)

Thank you :)

Thank you! I think it's more likely the 'Purple Emperor', the lighting in that picture made it look a bit darker than it really is.

Thirded :) And seconding the echinacea id. And the yellow ones are daylilies, in case you hadn't discovered this yet :) Oh, and the blue one is a campanula of some kind.

[amaena]

[curtana]

Thank you :) We love the red couches, they're exactly what we wanted!

[curtana]
