Life on Queen Street

I suspect as my response was "what's wrong with that" I've missed the point of this meme. Nevertheless,





take the WHAT BAD BOOK ARE YOU test.


and go to mewing.net. not as good as reading a good book, but way better than a bad one.


I think THE HOBBIT is cool, myself.

I'm writing poetry again. English Literature is afraid.

Meanwhile, THE GOLDEN COMPASS is a really, really good book and I recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy and hasn't read it yet. I'm about 100 pages from the end and really enjoying the ride but I think the people behind the film adaptation completely screwed the pooch. Also, if like me, you've heard bad things about Pullman's religious beef, so far I haven't found it much of an issue. Unless you find any criticism of organized religion offensive (in which case, you won't enjoy THE NAME OF THE ROSE either), I think Pullman's much-discussed atheism isn't really apparent in this book. I'm not sure I'll continue with HIS DARK MATERIALS: I don't really have the time or the money these days and I've heard that the final volume isn't that great. There's a certain attraction to leaving while the party is still fun.
