HottieCakes Wings Of Onyx Haha! Sounds funny. The last book I read was Interview with a Vampire. who's the author of that? Cuz I'm in a vampire stage right now. I just read Twilight. and I fell in love with that book immediately. Good (fantasy) books are my addiction. Anne Rice. Watch out for the dirty bits (because she used to write dirty books) gonk

I picked up Piratica and Piratica II by Tanith Lee (two hardcovers for under $25!) last night. Pirates plus Tanith Lee equals awesome! Probably. I haven't started on 'em yet.

Quirinia I picked up Piratica and Piratica II by Tanith Lee (two hardcovers for under $25!) last night. Pirates plus Tanith Lee equals awesome! Probably. I haven't started on 'em yet. I think... uh... I'ma censor myself here and just say that is freakin' hawttt. With three Ts. For emphasis. And Queen of the Damned... mmm, I read that back when I was still all 'Goddess' crazy. It depressed me. But I am in middle of The Wastelands by Stephan King and A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin. Those have been tossed to the side except for my plane trips to DFW in place of so much Byron and Shelley and primary sources from the Middle Ages (law codes and biographies and martyrdom stories--O, my!). My Romantic Poetry class has convinced me I need to read Paradise Lost, some Blake, and Keats, which was not given me back in high school, over the course of the summer.

Stephen King? I've tried reading his books, but he always seems to drag the detail on a little...
?
And where's "DFW"? And who's Shelly and Byron and Blake and Keats?
Okay, I'm lost sweatdrop

Onyx makes me feel so much better about not knowing many American poets.
Percy Bysshe Shelley, John Keats, and Lord Byron were all English poets, though two were exiled. :3

And all of them died outside of England, too!
DFW = Dallas/Fort Worth.

Three new books!
Gould's Book of Fish, Gumbo: An Anthology of African-American Writing, and The Power and the Glory. For $5.25!
Piratica is great (as predicted!), but I can't find the motherfucking book, so I can't start on the second one (and I was almost done with it!). Grrrr.

Mannnnn. I can't wait until I move up to Faye-town in the Fall. I will blow all my moneys at the used book store on Dickinson. Love that place heart
My boyfriend keeps trying to get me read a whole mess of commercial fantasy and science-fiction... mostly World of Warcraft novels and Star Wars novels. I haven't cracked a Star Wars novels since I was about fourteen. I told him I'd lose all my street cred if I went back... but I do kinda wanna read the X-wing series.

And considering none from that list were American, I think you think I'm American, which don't happen to be. Unless you were looking for a fellow Gaian to not understand American poetry with you sweatdrop

I am American; I don't know many American poets.
You are British; you don't know at least those poets.
See my logic? razz
