Thanks For The Great Advice, Jaden. Do I Look More Intelligent Yet? Am I Doing This Right?

Or better yet, muppets.

DO NOT MAKE EXCUSES FOR BAD WRITING.

I still have to throw rotten cabbages at you. It's the law.

I'm sorry, but I think you ought to be tossed in the stocks for a day for ever suggesting that anyone should watch season four of Angel. At minimum, you should be smacked on the nose with a rolled up newspaper.

"My no-no place."

I will never understand how any book that consistently refers to genitals as "down there" can be considered hot.

Yay for a fellow audiobook lover! (Got any good recs for particularly well-narrated novels?)

If you're a fan of audiobooks, the audiobook version is EXCELLENT. The narrator nails it so hard. It's a treat to listen to.

Vodissen.

I have HUGE reservations (and I haaaaate the actress they're using). But I'll still probably feel compelled to see it.

My husband has long known that our next female cat or dog shall be named Isserley (aren't the alien words in the book beautiful?).

No. Not even remotely.

Seriously, I was so excited, and shouting so loudly that my husband thought one of our pets had died or been gravely injured.

In the book, the main character has had grotesque plastic surgery to make her look like an almost cartoonish version of a perfect female. But she can only barely pass as human and has to go to lengths to manage that.

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD, THIS IS MY FAVORITE BOOK.

Didn't a pack of crazed Twilight fans once chase Robert Pattinson into a street, causing him to get clipped by a car? Let the dude be crabby.

As real as a duck-billed platypus.

Hell yes, it's real. Hooray for wacky evolution!
