Now that the kids are done with schoolwork today, I think I'll take a shower, make some food and possibly use my drawing tablet for a bit.
I do have a close friend and some family on the East coast, however, I've never actually been down to Florida. So if I ever do that for the first time, I'll make sure to reach out.
Travelling will have to wait until covid calms down. :d

Oh, don't worry - I understand the covid fear. :3
Enjoy your showers and "me time". I'm back from the dog walk but need to go start dinner and do the dishes, so I'll be back in a bit myself!

Morning! I just woke up. Woke up in a weird mood, I"m not sure how to remedy this feeling.

Last night went well, threw together dinner, played some video games, did my workout, and went to bed.
No plans today.

My coffee is brewing. I can't wait to drink it.

Oh yay! That's always a good feeling. :)
I hope it had a decent ending. I hate it when books leave me with more questions than answers.

It was an alright ending, not great though.

oh bummer. I imagine you probably had a different idea of how the book would end.

I've been reading the same author for the last 4 books, so they all end basically the same.

I didn't really go in with any expectations honestly. This is the guy who wrote Wicked, which I had a hard time getting into. He seems to really enjoy making characters that are hard to like.

Don't know who has the worst unlikable characters. Him or Diana Wynn-Jones (author who wrote Howl's Moving Castle).

what you think it is.

Donator Posted 4 years ago ( 2020/11/19 15:55:44 )
oh my gosh, I've only read the one by Diana Wynn-Jones. I did enjoy Howl's Moving Castle [novel], but I wouldn't re-read it.
I think I already stated that I attempted to read Wicked, I have it on my bookshelf, but I just can't seem to dive into it.

Oh I adore Howl's Moving Castle, it has two other books in the 'trilogy' and I use that loosely. Since Sophie and Howl only have like a cameo roles in the other books. Never did finish the third book. But I've read other works from Diana Wynn-Jones, and she loved making charmingly ass holeish characters. Like yeah Howl is a piece of shit, but it's fun to read him being a piece of shit.
But Gregory Maguire, it's not as fun reading the characters being terrible human beings. I bought three of his books recently. Next I'll be reading his Mirror Mirror, which I really liked the movie. Then my second attempt on Wicked.

what you think it is.

oh my gosh! I didn't realize there were more books in the Howl series. I feel silly for not knowing that. :)
I decided to look up Gregory Maguire. He has a few more books than I thought. He's dedicated to twisting old tales. I like it, he has a couple of titles I wouldn't mind reading.
I didn't know the Mirror Mirror movie was based on the Wicked series. XD I'm learning a lot today!

I didn't know about Mirror Mirror either, until I shelved it at work. So I bought all the Maguire books we had. XD

Hey guys - it's nice to see you. I am sort of here today - I'm trying to wrap up a couple technical things (and they're fighting me - lol!) before switching gears and trying to meet a creative deadline.

I have not read Howl's Moving Castle, but I did enjoy the movie.

What book are you going to read next AMA?

Which series of books are you currently reading Koah?
