Did you like Never Let Me Go? It's one of my favorite books! Also, yay for the Cutting Edge! Toepick ;)

[katayla.livejournal.com]

I enjoyed it! Joss Whedon mentioned it in an interview about Dollhouse, so that's why I sought it out. Really intriguing stuff.

And The Cutting Edge! Can you believe I'd never seen it before? SO glad I finally did! :D

Yeah! One of my LJ friends got me to read it. So glad I finally did. It's wonderful! :)

holy crap, you've read so much this month! Which was the best book you read?

[katayla.livejournal.com]

I LOVED the Jacqueline Carey books--Kushiel's Dart, Kushiel's Chosen and Kushiel's Avatar. They're epic fantasy and there's some alternative sexual practices, so I know not everyone will enjoy them, but I highly recommend them! I spent several days doing very little besides reading them. :)

Thanks for pimping, hun! :o)

No problem! I already got a new friend out of it, so I should be thanking you. :)

Hooooly. You read all that in one month!? You are quick, woman.

Only for now! Once school starts, I won't have nearly as much time.

Plus, TV is about to seriously distract me. :D
