    Currently reading: V, by Thomas Pynchon.

    Before that: The Yiddish Policeman's Union, by Michael Chabon.

    ...unfortunately, ponies are short on patience and attention spans, and won't let me read (or write) as much as I'd like.

    ^PLEASE tell me you're being sarcastic.

    I still can't decide what was worse Inheritance's ending or Mass Effect 3's.

    Currently reading "Elves: Rise of the Taigethen" by James Barclay

    I'm currently reading A Game Of Thrones right now, and even though i'm only halfway through it (it's 750 pages) it is amazing so far. It really catches the drawbacks of medieval times.

    I'm just about to finish up Inheritance, finally.

    After that I'll move on to Son of Neptune, and finally learn what happened to Percy Jackson.

    The characters and plot are very well developed, up to the extent that even the author probably didn't know what was going on. I mean, that's gotta be deep.
    And then the writing itself, there's hardly any, making the story very hard to follow even for the most intelligent of people because it has to fit all of it's detail into two word sentences.
    Lastly, the pictures make me fweel happy :3
