How has everyone been? I hope okay.

I've been doing fine. Nothing much to report except maybe that I've been craving rabbit food (vegetables, fruits) like a madwoman and reading books like crazy.

I went to visit my friend the other day and she let me borrow two big bags full of books and a few DVDs.

"Saving Juliet" is a cute, entertainingly fun read about a girl named Mimi Wallingford who gets thrown into Verona and mets the characters of Romeo and Juliet. It's a cute story that I would recommend to anyone who wants a fun light read or to people ages 16 and younger.

Since I'm a Jane Austin fan, I had to check out two sequel works done by other authors on "Pride and Prejeduce".
 
"The Darcy's and the Bingley's" was the first book I read. It was very comical, had a great plot, but I felt that it wasn't very close in-character with Jane Austen's originals. It's still a fun book to read but I recommend it to people ages 16 on up.

The second book that I'm currently reading and about to put away due to its not being satisfying at all is "Mr. Darcy Presents His Bride". Unlike the first book, this one is pretty similar to how Jane Austin would have written, although I found myself irratated to death at the authoresses portrayel of Elizabeth Bennet. If you enjoy a good, perfect Mary Sue of a character, then I implore you to read this book. You'll find every one of Jane's character's as flawed and ugly as criminals while Elizabeth is the only one who comes out perfectly angelic. I'm about to burn it except that it belongs to my friend. So instead, I'll just put it off to the side....for now.

Afterwards, I will start on the book series by Sara Dessen. My friend tells me they are great books and that she really wants me to read them. So, I just may start on these tonight while feasting on some corn and a bolagne sandwich. YUM!

The other day, I was cleaning out my computer desk when I came across the list that Laurie had sent to me of good reading material. I'm going to pull it out when I get home, stuff it into my purse, and bring it here to find those reads.

One last thing: Does anyone watch Comedy Central? And if so, did you see Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword last Thursday? I think I may have found a new obsession. lol. The show is crude at some points but hilarious at others. The characters have a present day feel even though they are supposed to be set in mid-evil periods. It plays tomorrow night at 9 after South Park. I can't wait to see it.  Sean Maguire plays Krod Mandoon. *sigh* He looks so good. But that's not the only reason to watch the show. They also have a wizard who can't do magic, a giant who is klutzy and too gentle, and a pagan witch who uses sex as her greatest weapon. <--big surprise there. But anyway, it's something to take your mind off the world at least.

Well, I hope every one has a good one. It's off to check my f-list, emails, and then home to hate Elizabeth Bennet Darcy and maybe watch that Final Fantasy DVD that's been starring at me since the weekend. ;o)
