Man. A defence of 'I came for brain fluff' at the library? Doesn't work so well when one of the books is a ten pound, five hundred page examination of Asiatic mythology.

I want to know what you're reading. Recommend something to me. I've pretty much cleared out Swift's library, and I've plowed through almost the entire backlog of books by authors I read.

Mystery, general or speculative fiction, fantasy, horror, anthologies, biographies, historical accounts, treatises on science, religion, and sociopolitics? I'll take them all. The only rider is that I'm not a huge science fiction fan, but good characterization will win me over any day.

What have you been perusing?

I love Lloyd Alexander. Never read 'Children of the Green Knowe' though.

I'm currently fighting the impulse to buy the omnibus edition of 'The Chronicles of Narnia.'

I shouldn't be saying this. But. Buy it.

I got it for my birthday this year, because I lost my original copy. I read them all within a week. (While going to school at night and working full time)

It's funny now to see how much of a bigot C.S. Lewis is, but I can also now pick out a lot of the Christian imagery that I couldn't when I read them the first time. (Like, 13 years ago)

Buy it. Buy it. Buy it. (Is it working?)

Buy it. Buy it. Buy it. (Is it working?)

No. No, it's not. It's really not.
