books I read:
I liked the world and most of the characters, but the main character was self-centered and had a serious inferiority complex. Luckily, she seemed to have developed and matured. Can't wait to start the next book.tagged: fantasy
You know, I really wanted to like the Anita Blake series, but after reading the first book, it just didn't sit well. I'm all for strong female leads, but she's just too cynical, sarcastic, and bitter for me. Maybe if I knew just why she ha...tagged: quit-reading, urban-fantasy, and vampire
There are more elements of steampunk in this second Parasol Protectorate (I love the name of the series!) novel than in the second one, which was interesting.

A steampunk-lite romp into a refreshingly new world of vampires and werewolves. I was getting pretty jaded and worn out by urban fantasy/paranormal romance books, but Soulless's take on the mythos was different enough to keep me interested...
The first half of this book, which introduced the protagonist, Gen, and supporting characters, was incredibly dull. I didn't particularly like Gen throughout most of this book. He was selfish, arrogant, whiney, and didn't seem pleasant to b...tagged: adventure, fantasy, and young-adult

Mmm I haven’t had couscous in years. How do you ever make time to cook.. I wish I could do that. =P Do you always plan out your meals a day ahead so you can get groceries or do you just whip up something from whatever is in your fridge?
The BF and I usually plan our meals ahead by putting them in google calendar. That way, we know what groceries to buy, and what to look forward to for dinner in a couple of days.
But sometimes we get lazy and have “leftover surprise” from whatever is in the fridge.
Louise, this looks like a great combo: couscous and mung beans! Thats a first! Thanks!
GA…
Why won’t my boyfriend eat asparagus…?!!
