so far, I've only read up to the 5th HP book. At the this point think it's ok but it may vary when I've start read number 6 and 7.
Personally I like the 3rd book the most. The 4th book is pretty good too although it's very dark and edgy.

Zars, we're not HP fans. We just happened to like the HP books. Did we lined up at bookstores to get our grubby hands on the latest HP book at the time? No. Did we cosplay as our favourite characters? Definately no. Did we tried to rip Twilight fans down for bagging the HP books? Uh... no. So yeah, we just like them as a guilty pleasure, not as a "ZOMG! This is my favourite shit!" Although, I'm starting to feel ashamed for being a fan of Mass Effect now... I've just realised today that I'm a fangirl of the game *sigh*. Coming from someone who thinks that Twilight fans have taken all of the Twilight rage too seriously. Anyways, this about bagging books have fan fiction flaws standards, not a debate about fanboi confessions. So where were we? Did anyone read John Ringo's "Paladin of Shadows"? My god... it's like a thick book that fits inside the genre of action/lemon. That book is filled with lots of BDSM scenes and the main protagonist is a Anti Stu that is dress up in a "Draco-in-leather-pants" kind of thing. I thought that sort of thing only exist in Fan Fic worlds... but supprise, supprise, it's actually a professionally publish books. While we're on the topic of Anti Sues and lots of randy IKEA erotica, has anyone stumbled across the Anita Blake series? From what I have heard it about an attractive woman who is a gifted vampire hunter/necromancer/animator. Heard it has a big author appeal and while it's fair enough to say the books were at first decent but later on it get's worse in the later series due to the author appeal. I was thinking about taking a look at them once I've finish the other books and games. So what do you think?

But I don't actually like the books is what I meant. I was choosing my favourite out of my least favourite book series. Which just makes me very confused.
I'm off for 2 days... byez!

No. Did we cosplay as our favourite characters? Definately no. Did we tried to rip Twilight fans down for bagging the HP books? Uh... no. My friend's family are big time Harry Potter fans and I actually went with them to a few of the midnight release parties for the books. It was like Mos Eisley, only with a bunch of nerds. Went to one at a small bookstore and they had butterbeer. I was afraid to try it, since I didn't even know it really existed. I'm still not sure if it does. So where were we? Did anyone read John Ringo's "Paladin of Shadows"? My god... it's like a thick book that fits inside the genre of action/lemon. That book is filled with lots of BDSM scenes and the main protagonist is a Anti Stu that is dress up in a "Draco-in-leather-pants" kind of thing. I got a John Ringo book for free from Amazon the other day. "There Will Be Dragons." I got it purely because of the title and the epic cover depicting some scantily-clad fantasy elf chick, a dragon, and some sort of X-wing. Amazing.

lol Why is that plane in there?
Buchy, I went to my brother-in-laws house to see Daniel's family and to drop the kittens off for neutering at the vets. We had the worst time of our lives trying to get back to the vets though. Wigan pisses me off. The story of hell actually goes on for 5 hours so I have no idea where to begin. Lets just say Wigan bus drivers are dicks. Cab drivers are cocks. Wigan pedestrians are worse dicks and wigan council need to be sued. But the train service was fantastic! Brownie points to virgin and northern rail. I seriously love those guys now.
Anyway I'm off again. Catching a train to London in an hour... I'll probably re-appear briefly tomorrow evening I promised a bunch of people they'd get chapter 5 of 'This is not about sex' then and I have been sitting on it.
Bye again!

*Waves hello and goodbye as Zarsthor passes through*
That picture is making me have second thoughts about our friend John Ringo (Paul George) - it takes a brilliant mind to combine elves with 80's hair, dragons... and X-wings.

Yeah, screw Narnia. John Ringo's universe is what I want to find in my closet.

"You're so far in the closet you're in Narnia."
I'm really sick so no chapter 5. I really can't edit the thing and I reappeared a day later than I said. Sorry. My mother had me laying wood flooring all yesterday.
