I continue to read the x-journals and am loving it immensely. (Go, go Rachel! I had a feeling it was you ;-)) Yet it seems Bobby and I have a common dilemma...

Personally, I'd like to take my time reading Half-Blood Prince (which will probably take me over a week). In case the book will be talked about here, I would take a break and catch up later, no harm done.

So - will there be a no-spoilers policy for "Book 6" at Xavier's? :-)

Awww.

She says the sweetest things.

And I won't be getting HP&THBP anytime real soon as JK Rowling can't worldbuild her way out of a paper bag if you spotted her a blowtorch and a roadmap. It's really, really sad when I can sit down and play "Yeah, but what about X?" for _four hours_. Without even thinking very hard.

Now, when A Feast For Crows comes out, THEN you'll lose me for a day or so.

Well, as much as Amanda loves Manuel, he's got all the self-preservation instinct of a suicidal mayfly... Seriously.

Yes, but with his power he's quite arrogant about having to suffer the violence of strangers. He did OK with NY muggers... ;)

Jedi Mind Trick and all that.

He's forgetting the number of times he's been the centre of everyone's loathing at the school because he didn't know when to shut the hell up. ;)

He'd fix that, but there's this bald guy with the big brain who frowns on that sort of thing.

I rest my case. There's always _other_ ways to fix things but those don't even occur to him.

But his way is more direct, more final, and under his complete control.

Or so he thinks.

Have I ever disputed this?

And leave his killfile out of it!

PS - To a nerd, "plonk" is the sound someone makes when they hit your killfile.

Nope. *grins* Amanda's just being smug.

And I'm so glad you explained that reference - techno-nong, remember? I'm lucky I know how to program my VCR...

Yay for Martin. Post spoilers to /that/ one and you'll lose internal organs. *nods*

And all I can say to that is...

Brotherfucker.

I don't have favorite characters. Because they are all marked for death. *nods* He keeps taking people away and then I start hyperventilating and...yes, he's killed my ability to love any character for fear that my love will kill them too.

See, that's part of the FUN to me. Nobody has Plot Immunity.

I have a feeling I'm gonna lose The Mountain That Rides to the Red Viper's poisoned spear, though.

That's gonna _suck_.

It's incredibly nerve-wracking. I have to read under influence of a Xanax.

No offense, but that's just bizarre to me.

I hope you're kidding.

About the Xanax anyway. Usually I just drink tea.

Oh good.

Hell, I usually have something to drink on-hand if I'm reading a book.

Mostly it just results in cold tea. Because I forget.

Gah! I refused to read more then half of book two for ages because I didn't want to see my favourite character killed. Now I have to find two and three before Feast of Crows comes out. *grins*

Half way through A Game of Thrones that Amanda Sichter lent me, and I have to say, it's worth all the recommendations. *grins* Bad guys who have redeeming qualities, good guys who don't, all sorts of twists and turns and people dying unexpectedly...

I love it. *grins* Got me something to occupy myself while everyone else is Pottering.

Thought you would. *grins* I've been told the third book (Which is really the second half of the second book but the author split them into two books.) is where it really gets fucked up. (So going to the library after gym tomorrow and seeing if I can grab the second and third book.)

And that would be me as the anon user - because I was a silly head and forgot to log in.
