I couldn’t help myself. :)

Ahem. *SQUEAK!

Yes, unfortunately. My dad looks a lot younger than he is (he could pass for mid-late 40s and he’s in his early 60s).

Came here for this comment. I still can’t accept what happened in Children of Earth. :(

I hear you. I tried reading the first...and even a 3 hour flight with no movies could get me more than 1/4 of the way through.

Excuse me: sparkle. Sparks just don’t do it. They just don’t...dazzle me.

That may be one of the grossest things I’ve read. :(

I can’t believe you wrote what you did about Jian Ghomseshi. Buyer’s remorse?! Are you kidding me with this shit?!

I’m really disliking Matt Murdock. :/

Nooooo. :(

I have sometimes had previously flirtatious men lose interest fast when they realize what I do for a living (I am a lawyer who works in an international field). This has included men refusing to tell me what they do for a living because it “isn’t impressive”. The infuriating thing is that, when I’ve talked about these…

I think the answer may be that the author couldn't write two more books about the threat she represents.
