      Re: Whats everyone reading now or read lately

      So I'm reading Mists of Avalon right now and I'm not sure I want to keep going. (Spoiler alert) I'm at the point where Morgause takes Morgaines baby and I'm pissed and disturbed. Part of it is I don't see Morgaine getting the child back any time soon. Another is that with my baby still being a baby its really gut wrenching. And having had a csection and having my baby pulled away as soon as she was born it hits a trigger I guess. And I just don't know if its worth it. I never get this worked up over a book. Ugh
      We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less. There is good and evil among every kind of people. It's the evil among us who rule now. -Anne Bishop, Daughter of the Blood

      I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
      It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
      Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.
      -Jacqueline Carey, Naamah's Curse

      Service to your fellows is the root of peace.

                I haven't read that one, but I'm a big fan of Edward O. Wilson.
                Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                  I finished The Sleep Room by F.R Tallis. Amazing! It's def on my top 10 of the year. I had no idea just how intense this audiobook would be. You can read my review of it HERE

                  And I finally got an audio copy of Jonathan Maberry's Dead of Night. THE zombie book I've been dying to get my hands on! So excited. :=o:

                      Awe yeah, finished up Dead of Night. I cried on the bus today. That's how it went. You can read my review HERE

                      I am now going to listen to Zone One, a novel by Colson Whitehead. Another zombie after the fact story. Now I actually tried to listen to this earlier in the year. And I couldn't get past the first hour. It wasn't narration as much as the author's need to constantly be a thesaurus. Every sentence was an over stimulated plate of party platter. Just overly descriptive. Which is very opposite of what I like. I like Nin. Sparse. To the point. But I really like the idea of the story, so Imma give it another go.

                          Christian Nation: A Novel by Frederic C. Rich. It's a dystopia about if John McCain won the election, died, making Sarah Palin president, and the Christian Right took over the country. The Christian leadership pass a series of laws called "The Blessing" that monitors everything, takes away the first amendment, and makes us a Christian Nation. It's pretty good.

                              I have never been across the way
                              Seen the desert and the birds
                              You cut your hair short
                              Like a shush to an insult
                              The world had been yelling
                              Since the day you were born
                              Revolting with anger
                              While it smiled like it was cute
                              That everything was shit.
