My love for sparkly vampires made me start reading Breaking Dawn yesterday (and only have 2 chapters left). Odd, because I never read the book before the movie cause all I do is sit and cuss the screen. lol

i have been reading that mind numbing stuff lately... the kind where you spend 8 bucks for a couple of hours off the clock and 2 hours later you cant remember the book you just read...
sooo... someone gave me a bag of books... or i found some at a digg sale or something... i am forever seeing little old ladies with laurell k hamilton around here... (repressive southern community) now that i have read this author i now know that almost my entire family is as freaky as i am... this is some heavy bdsm porn disguised as a harlequin... really... i woulda been embarrassed sitting with my aunt if i had known what she was readin!... seriously... its near scandelous... and... she prays for me because i am gay!.... im happy to know she is a freak... but dang... i didnt have to know.... |

im in the middle of a couple of books right now...
the one that is tryin to monopolize me is Getting Mother's Body by Suzan - Lori Parks it is a really decently written account of 1963 southern poor black trash... the leads mother was buried with jewels... a pearl necklace and a diamond ring... a supermarket is about to plow over her grave where the bulldagger that she lived with buried her with her own hands... her 16 year old daughter needs money for a 5 month abortion... so she is going to dig her up... ostensibly so that she isnt under a parking lot... actually because she wants the 'treasure'... |
I'm actually reading two books at the moment.
"Woman-to-Woman Sexual Violence" by Lori Girshick and "Homophobia: A Weapon of Sexism" by Suzanne Pharr |

keep this under your hats, cuz i don't want my geek license revoked... *whispers* i am just now reading Neuromancer by William Gibson SHHHHHHH! Stop all that loud gasping- the geek police will hear you! |
what I'm reading
"The Passion of New Eve" by Angela Carter
and "Written on the Body" by Jeanette Winterson |
i just noticed this was addressed to me... sorry bout that...
the books you have mentioned are about a faery land in the US... not a bad waste of time... if you are in the mood to waste time... the porn/smut i am speaking of are from the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series... she is on a roll with these books it seems... as far as i can tell the later the book the more risque it is... the books are a tad violent.. and may have story lines... for a pure fantasy read... not the worst i have experienced... hows that!
