Look, I'm alive.

You ought to be more excited about that, you know. You know, all 122 of you (woop! 122 followers! Thank you all so much! It makes me feel like this blog is actually something impressive, rather than a bunch of haphazardly pieced together ramblings.), plus the silent anonymous viewers that I like to think read my blog. Well, everyone's pretty silent at the moment, actually ... Remember, people. Comments are love. ^^ What, you don't want my love? Buh-but-but I spellchecked it and everything!

Anyhow, this is just a little update post. I'm working on a couple of reviews - you know, like I normally do. With the pace of a dying turtle. Or perhaps the correct term would be the pace of an aging turtle. Anyhow, I'm working (well, contemplating. There is a difference, but for my sake, you will forget that it exists.) on some non-review posts. You know, for range. So yeah, look out for those.

I haven't really been doing much other than watching re-runs of Friends on TV and re-reading The Clockwork Angel/mentally preparing myself for The Clockwork Prince (one such preparation has been to stare at the back of the book for a couple of minutes each day, as I cannot face the guy on the cover. Not sure why. There is something in his eyes that intimidates me.). I like it more this time, but Tessa remains annoying and the state of her spine remains undecided. I like Jem way more, now, for some reasons. It's gotten to the point where I'm kind of stroking the pages where he speaks.

There are just somethings that you shouldn't admit, aren't there

Anyhow, I finally got round to reading Beautiful Creatures. There's lots of good stuff in there; I mean, not all of it is used in a particularly good way, and sometimes it feels like a lot of the stuff has just been dumped there without much consideration, but I like it so far - Lena and Ethan are pretty cool. I really like how the normal roles (the curious girl and the supernatural boy) have been reversed. (With the curious boy and the supernatural girl.) I also really like books set in the South, and you can beat a person to death with it, so that's always a plus. Oh, right. Here, have a space kitty!



This post is getting long, so I'll just end with a few links. Woop. I love links. And so should you. First, on the subject of link-age, I have actually started up another review blog, where I review manga and comics and thing. Don't worry, that's not why I've been neglecting you. Anyhow, that can be found here. I also have a tumblr, where I occasionally rave about whatever book I'm reading, but mostly just spam with pictures of fishes or manga or whatever. Here.
