I can never properly express how happy it makes me that someone else reads as fast as I do.

[lesyeuxouverts]

Heh. And I've slowed down a lot, due to playing WoW and spending too much time on Skype !

[matt_doyle]

Hurrah for WoW!

[lesyeuxouverts]

What servers are you on already ?

[distractogirl]

Did you enjoy The End of Mr Y? I read it in September and was delighted if a little confused by it! You've got some very interesting books listed - I may have to go to the library very soon after Christmas.

[lesyeuxouverts]

Yes I did ! it was rather awesome. I like the way the fantastical suddenly intrudes into the very, very commonplace.
And I can lend you most of the books :)

[lesyeuxouverts]

Quite so. And philosophy I have some clue about, unlike Sophie's World.

[megamole]

As a counter-tenor, Cry to Heaven really pissed me off. It's more like badly written slash.

[lesyeuxouverts]

I think that describes most of Anne Rice's stuff. Except for the Beauty series, which are like badly written het.

[janieluk]

I once bought the Beauty series for someone. Couldn't get through them myself though. How did she become so popular?

[friend_of_tofu]

SO. MUCH. PADDLING.
