Feeling? How can books be about feelings? -Do you mean like getting kicked in the shin, that kind of feelings?

Young girls are coming to the canyon...
And in the morning I can see them walking
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can't keep myself from talking..
(major Mama Cass fan over here. Gotta read that book!)
Just finished the first book in the Overlander Chronicles. It was very enjoyable and it was really easy to read it. The pacing was solid and the cast of characters was wicked (my favorite being Ripred, even though I can't quite remember how to write his name.) The only thing is I'm not huge on prophecy stories but even so, this was still very enjoyable.
I read the first Gregor book, and I guess I felt it was just okay. The problem, I think, is that my brother had just gotten back from a writer's workshop in Lake Tahoe, and one thing he told me stuck in my brain. Anne Lamott had said to them - "always know where the light comes from," or something like that. So, I'm reading about an underground city and wondering the whole time - where is the light coming from? It's a picky little point, but it bugged me. Much like the giant cockroaches.
But we never tried the kissing thing, honest. We weren't that kind of friends. More the, "Get out of my yard or I'll tell Susan that you like her". Which was a very effective threat.
More charming awesomeness:
RULES by Cynthia Lord.
Read it straight through while sitting on the patio hugging my puppies. Life is good.
Put me down as being extremely meh on Rules. I liked Touch Blue way more.
