@Kino - Yeah, we had to sign one. Can't breathe a word of it! Not that I would. And yes, he is signing the entire first printing... poor guy's going to hurt himself doing that, but he promised he would and so he's gonna. That's what I like about him.

We just sent off for our copy of the manuscript. I'll read it, too, and we can have the most snobbish book club ever, all by our lonesome.

Hold the phone, John Green?! Epic! Will Grayson, Will Grayson by him and David Levithan was awesome. Also An Abundance of Katherines by just him was pretty good. Let me know if the new one's any good!

Yay Thanks you!

You know, I forgot to have tea and cookies on the day we talked about the last book in the book club.

My God Brotherband Chronicles: The Outcasts was SO delicious!! THE ENDING WAS SUCH A CLIFF HANGER, THOUGH >_<

^_^ And it was such a fun read. I mean, some of the ship sailing things went over my head and I had to reread a few scenes a few times to fully understand, but it was a lot of fun reading and the characters were as rich and wonderful as Ranger's Apprentice. I was worried that Hal might end up being another Will - that the author might be unable to break away from such a beloved character - but he did really well in that regard. Hal is no Will. ... Don't ask me who I like better, though. Hal the inventor with leadership skills or Will, ever inquisitive risk taker who lacks self-confidence about the oddest things (you'll break into an enemy's camp and burn down their bridge but you get nervous about telling a battlemaster his soldiers SUCK?!).

And it was so fun going through the training of the boys and I SO look forward to the next book where it breaks away from that. Like Ranger's Apprentice, while it was fun to read about the boys learning their crafts, the story opened up more when they were given free reign to put their lessons into action.

... -_- *sigh* damn. I read it too fast, though. Now I'm going to be waiting an eternity for the next book. >_>; Please write fast, John Flanagan... no, wait, I mean, not so fast as to lose out on story quality. Auuu~ I just wanna read the next book.


.... I need to pull myself out of Flanagan's writing. I still have to read Riordan's book! But... I keep putting it off because I'm like "god, but it will be forever to his next book." But since I'm now in that position for Flanagan's book... I might as well get it over with and enjoy another good story. I mean... it's Percy Jackson again... :3 the wise-ass.


... Still have not continued to read that Dark Hunter book... >_< I do not want to know what characters die. I mean, I don't know if they will (btw Scy, loved the images) but do I want to risk finding out. o_o;; .... Kyrian... Amanda.... <_<;;

T-T
