May. 9th, 2013 07:02 pm1. Haven't had much time to catch up on tv - so per usual, DVR is getting too full and threatens to start deleting things willy-nilly. I may have to forestall it by either deleting the Arlene Specter movie, Hannibale episodes that I haven't seen or Parade's End.
Did see Sunday's Revenge which was better than expected and managed to surprise me.
2. Finished Fever by Maya Banks, which was nothing to shout about. A forgettable erotica that came thisclose to porn, tried to write an Amazon review but wouldn't post because I used the word fuck in the review. I had to - I was commenting on how the writer overuses the word fuck in the story. Ironic that Amazon can't handle me putting the words fuck and porn in a review of a book that well...
The information age continues to amuse me with its ironic hypocrisy.
Currently reading a rather fun paranormal romance about a medieval female warrior who meets up with a dragon, who just happens to be a shape-shifter. Ie. He can change from mighty dragon to human form. It's rather funny actually. The author has a dry and somewhat absurd wit. It's not for everyone. Mileage, it varies...is rapidly becoming my catch phrase.
Much to my own chagrin.
The romance is entitled Dragon, Actually" by G.A Aiken. It's short, about 217 pages. Heroine's name is Annwyl the Bloody or Annwyl of the Dark Plains, who is a mighty female warrior that is fighting her evil half-brother, who has tried to kill her since she was twelve. She gets saved by a huge black dragon, name Feargus the Destroyer...and the dragon provides her with a handsome but mysterious knight to help train her. She falls for the dragon, who is 219 years old.
I admittedly have a weakness for dragons. Dragons, lions, tigers, panthers, and cats. Not so found of dogs or wolves for some reason. I have no idea why. Also not so crazy about birds.
But cats and dragons...swoon. Also like dolphins.
This latest was recommended by co-worker who had taken pity on me. She had read the Song of Ice and Fire books and was watching the series - and new why I needed lighter fare.
