| read peter pan for the first time today. i liked it - good style.
i think i've become a little more selective in what i read in some ways - i checked out a few "old school" fantasy writers like mercedes lackey and robert jordan just to try them out, but i don't get drawn in with jordan and i feel lacking with lackey's stuff. i just get.. bored. and some other writers i can get through the book, but i don't really escape into the book. and yet with other books - which i am somewhat embarrassed to say - that are more geared towards and/or categorized as children's books (Narnia, Peter Pan, Animorphs, Artemis Fowl) I still enjoy much more than someone my age probably should. i wonder if this is some tolerance and lowered expectancy for these books.. but i think not. i think they just capture something of a child-like innocence, albeit still with blood and battles, and also a streak of humor that i appreciate - subtle, yet able to tickle one in a way that i can keep coming back to it after a while away and be amused. unfortunate that the entire freaking animorphs series that the childrens' library used to have (quite a considerable amount by the way - it used to take up almost an entire half of a large bookcase) has all disappeared except for K.A. Applegate's debut hardback novel in "The Hork-Bajir Chronicles." i checked today. Wow. How is that possible. I guess many people just kept them without returning them, or damaged them so much over the years that they were thrown out. the latter was the reason the librarian gave, and since apparently the publisher doesn't print them anymore, they can't reorder them. sigh. i really wanted to know what happened to elfangor after the 1st andalite chronicles book.
anyone know where i could find animorphs books? |

| ugh i freaking hate it when people can't mind their own business and have to air out other people's bad laundry to the world. if someone wants to keep something private, even if you think that's the wrong way to do it, that is THEIR prerogative, not yours! can't you see you may be ruining someone's life?! or many people's lives? ARGH. even worse is when the blabbermouths keep telling more and more people within a close circle, ie of family, so that there is no place to feel at ease. i can foresee how our family is going to crumble very soon - it's at an extremely precarious perch at the moment because of this and someday it's all going to be ripped to shreds. i can only pray that God will help us turn the bad to good and somehow pull everything together again.
which is why it's always best to keep important things to yourself. unfortunately, sometimes when people cannot/have not learned how to overcome their anger and maintain control, they inadvertently let things slip... and then it's too late. sigh.
perhaps the saddest part of all this is the fact that the main player in this is completely unaware that s/he is the cause of such a huge maelstrom. |
