How dare some women try to have a little self esteem! Ew, gross!

I'm on the Ed Wood train, too.

I know exactly what you mean, Zack. Black Hills should have ended right at the Little Big Horn Battlefield.

The Terror was great, but the endings of both Drood and this one—I finished it just last night—are awful. They ruin the books.
