You can all uncover your eyes now, those who read my last post. I've stopped being weird and overly-angstful. I might play very well into a lot of teen drama cliches, but I'll be damned if I write about them all the time on lj.

Anyway. Reading Terry Pratchett's "The Truth" again, which I love. And I bought "Monstrous Regiment", which I reread immediately because it always makes me squeeful inside. :sigh: And I read "Small Gods", which I hadn't gotten to before but loved and can be blamed for my bad and angstful behavior. Nothing like a book on religion and the death of gods to make you spill your guts in a blog, I suppose.

In any case... I want yaoi for it. Am I the only one? 'Cuz sometimes I wonder. Does anyone else want to see Om/Brutha? Vorbis/Brutha? Om/Brutha/Vorbis? I feel slightly better because it's not like I want some viciously descriptive fanfiction or overly-detailed fanart of a god, a melon grower/prophet, and a... a Vorbis. (I don't even know what would be an accurate adjective to describe Vorbis. Those who've read the book may understand.) I just want something simple, except I specifically want to see the pairing(s). I'm afraid to look. I know it won't be there, and that makes me sad. :( But if anyone's seen any...! :waggles eyebrows meaningfully: Or has even read the book. Or any Discworld novel... And if you haven't, you should!

Notes for this post: I'm sure you're all wondering (not) why I always say "yaoi" instead of slash, m/m, shounen-ai, etc. It's because my mom knows what slash is (I use that second-most often) and not yaoi. So when I speak with my friends, I say "yaoi." Also, because I am more anime-oriented in life and more book-oriented online, but the anime terms are catchy and short and stick in the mind. I try to keep it short here, short enough to not need an lj cut, and I try not to litter people's friend pages. I hope I have succeeded in this., y

Soooo here's a meme thingy. It's list of books from the Big Read, and it's stolen from <lj user="surranndie">'s post.

According to The Big Read, the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books on their list.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.

2) Italicize those you intend to read.

3) Underline the books you LOVE.

4) Reprint this list in your own LJ.
