finished... finally

Yes, finally done with Wicked Lovely. The tome was not really bad. I just started this year with a pretty hectic schedule, and I could only scan a few pages at a time during breaks. Apologies, Miss Marr.

Anyhow, the plot was all right. It was downright exciting in some parts actually. But all in all, it had this quality of being a mesh between a Hallmark and a Syfy miniseries. The love story is a bit wonky and flat. It was unexpected and that is good, seeing as the popular schemes tend to be the predictable ones. And I actually like the pairings, but it kinda felt a little contrived. Still, I bet many would watch this... if somebody made this into a feature film or TV movie. And no, I'm not typing anything more to save me from my "spoiler giver" tendencies. If you're a fan of anything supernatural, which I am, giving some of your leisure time to this might be well worth it.

Next on the list:



(Just couldn't resist posting an image of the Wordsmith God. ^_^)

It will be a revisiting of previous books I've read... (of previous awe-inspiring books I've read. Haha)
just because they're awesome... :P

Meanwhile, I just saw this lovely omnibus edition of American Gods and Anansi Boys. I am so green with envy! :P



positively drooling over this... *facepalm*
