I think Moridiane (sp?) is pretty great. She's just so.... I don't even know the right word to call her. She's human in the best way. She's concerned for the boys and she is world weary. She's smart and wise and is aware of herself and everyone around her. She shows her flaws and makes mistakes sometimes but it just makes her all the more relatable. I'm getting this from only 6 or so chapters in though so who knows how well she holds up.

Well you do but don't spoil it for me ;-;

This semester, I read Catch 22, a biography of Thelonious Monk, and All Your Base Are Belong To Us, a book about the history of video games that wasn't very good but it was interesting I guess.

Right now I'm reading Flatland and it is dry as a kite.

I'd like to read Brave New World. Any comments?

I remember reading that in 6th grade. I thought it was pretty interesting, though I think I'll understand some of its aspects better if I read it now. If you're reading that then you might as well read the rest of that 'trifecta', 1984 and Fahrenheit 451. Both are also pretty interesting and I have never heard someone discuss one without mentioning one of the others.

It's because all of them depict a world under a single control group. Although in Brave New World, they dominate through 'happiness' and 'pleasure', instead of violence. At least afaIk.

That's pretty much it, yeah.

I need to return my library books like... Now. I don't even remember when they were due anymore.

I've never actually been member of a library. Welp, that's probably because I usually buy my books. I find it much more comfortable not to be worrying about giving it back okay and stuff... not a responsibility guy.

They made a book out of V for Vendetta? I heard that they made a comic of Watchmen too.

Oh man, you almost got me there. VfV is originally a comic. So is Watchmen.
