Don’t you love it when you wander over to Barnes and Noble for a quick cup of coffee, maybe a peek at a magazine, and then end up staying there for 3209830948 hours, reading a novel from start to finish in one sitting?

And not because it’s - you know - actually good or anything like that. (I have a severe case of Fan Loyalty. Once I get into a ( Read more... )

Novelizations of movies are never quality. It's tradition.

You're signing up to yuletide or I'm sitting on you, btw.

But, it wasn't really like the movie at all. (I think, I only kind of half-watched the movie, but only plot only seemed superficially similar.)

I can't do Yule tide, I'm doing Nano and I want to die, and it hasn't even started yet.

...but it's still the novelization of the movie, and so.

Great. Yuletide is 1/50th as bad as Nano, so you'll be fine.

I have no explanation to something I can't understand myself.

I love when a story hooks me so much that I decline to give attention to anything else until it's finished. Even when I know the story isn't really that good, but I still give it priority. It's like lying in when you know you should attend some classes you decide to skip because bed is more important at the moment. Guilty pleasure moves the world.

I'm somehow able to see L disguised as a bear. The cross-dressing is quite more difficult to envision.

I've just read volume 11 and I curse my destiny for volume 12 not being available in the library when I borrowed #10 and #11. Fuck.

Not only does he dress as a bear, they compare him to a panda on (possibly more than) one occasion.

It's a guilty pleasure, that just makes me sad, somehow.

I agree 100% with your theory. Mainly because, I am one of those people. (Go me.)

I agree. We need to have a revolution. A publishing revolution, where fanworks of great quality are incorporated right into canon. (Can you imagine that? This lovely, large mutable universe that grows and grows indefinitely! It really would be the way a mythos should be; changing right along with readership.)

Um. Where do we begin?

Speaking of that, one day, when you are not too busy chasing errant horses and corralling children, would you mind sending me that list of places/journals/whatever they are?

yes, November!
