swatkat* Right now, I have with me Going Postal and Wicked. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jaybee65, I'll tell you what I think as soon as I can get my hands on it (the Sister says: 'Wow. It's like, a book about the Wicked Witch of West!').
* I have been reading rather a lot of Pratchett lately. This makes me happy.
* I wish RL would stop being so depressing. I don't foresee that happening in the near future, though.
* I do, however, foresee a lot of Pratchett-related babbling in this journal in the near future.
* I amused myself in the bookstore by looking at the tie-in novels from various tv shows. There were a couple on Lost, both featuring OCs. The best one, however, was the sole Buffy novel. The blurb went something like this:
Spike has fallen, so has the Rogue slayer, Faith. Buffy is all alone and Sunnydale is ruled by vampires.
Rupert Giles is Vampire King.
The photo of Giles on the cover, however, was rather fetching.
* There were also Angel comics. With a number of photos of DB in them. *dies*
* Rome continues to rock my socks.
* I saw House. Hugh Laurie is disturbingly hot. I don't generally enjoy medical shows (because of the very annoying patient-doctor interactions. you know, the parts were the patient lectures the doctor and gives him Will to Live etc. there was some of it in this ep as well), but considering how much time I spent today thinking about people I'd ship House with (Wilson. because they are so married. Cuddy. the snark. *and* she's his boss) and laughing over lines like "Oxygen is so important during those pre-pubescent years, don't you think?", I'll probably watch some more of this show.
* I have a new moodtheme, courtesya_girl_icons. There isn't enough Edie in it, but I love it all the same.

Heh, that's heartening. I have very low opinion of tie-in novels, thanks to some unfortunate experiences with SW tie-ins. *shudders*

And House is awesome! (still not sure about the show, but House, the character, really is great)

And yes, I'll get to Wicked as soon as I can pry it off the Sister. Of course, I read Going Postal instead (it's Pratchett), so I'm not complaining. *g*
