Books & Manga


Hey people of the InterWeb! Sorry it's been so long in updating, but here's the low-down.

My madre (mother for those of you without any knowledge of Spanish), who is the bestest most wonderfullest person in the whole wide world, got the two of us tickets to the 'Twilight Experience'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best birthday present EVER, right? Anyway, we went together at 2:30, when seating began (Twilight didn't begin until four hours later). For the record, Eclipse is the best Twilight Saga movie yet! For those of you who have yet to see it, go. Now. Seriously. I cried. (SHUT UP! not funny... I can hear you laughing)

I also read the awesome book Graceling by Kristin Cashore. I loved it so much!!!! Much thanks to Wriggles, who convinced me to read it. In a world with people are given abnormal abilities, or Graces, in certain areas, Katsa is shunned. Her Grace is a terrifying one. She is a killer.

I also read a few manga this week. First, the Crazy Love Story series by Lee Vins. I loved it. Normally I'm not into manga, but this week it seemed unusally good. Sung Moo has loved Hae Jung from afar for a long time, but she has eyes only for Jimmy, an unusual foreigner with bright blue hair. This enters the three of them into a seriously crazy love story. Second, I read Vol. 2 & 3 (library didn't have Vol. 1)of Princess Ai, co-authored by Courtney Love, Ai Yazawa, Mishao Kujradou, and DJ Milky (google him). It was average, three out of five stars. But still good. Just not great.

All right, eleven days till my birthday. Start buying those presents! (Tip: Spirit Bound by Rachelle Mead, or anything from Hot Topic!)

Love and lemon drops,
Victoria
