And that's a bad thing...not! Besides I doubt Frankenstein squee-ed.

The Roze 07-20-2012 06:12 PM

You never know :P
I've never actually read Frankenstein... I really should

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 06:15 PM

I have. I did it in fifth year and believe me it is DULL. When the monster is made things get interesting buy before that it is incredibly boring. It was alright to read the first time but then studying it.....it pretty much ruined any pleasure I had in reading the book.

The Roze 07-20-2012 06:38 PM

Shame, I've heard it's good.
Dracula is another classic I have tor ead. I tried it, and was getting really into it when it switched from the diary entries of the guy staying with Dracula to some letters from a woman talking about the marriage proposals she received. I got bored of that quite quickly but I am determined to try again sometime

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 06:49 PM

Dracula is very good! That part is a bit boring but after her things do start to get more interesting. Dracula is amazing. I love his character and how he was portrayed in the book.

The Roze 07-20-2012 07:16 PM

By the way, how are you getting on with Soulless? :)

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 07:18 PM

I haven't read anymore yet but I plan on reading some tonight before bed. I'm still at teh bit where something's just crashed into teh carrige and saved Alexia from being kidnapped. The driver sounds pretty creepy looking.

The Roze 07-20-2012 07:30 PM

Yeah, he really gives me the creeps >.<
Like I said before, you should read more because there's a VERY good bit coming up ;)

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 07:45 PM

Ooh? Does it involve a certain Scottish werewolf or ridiculously flamboyant vampire?

The Roze 07-20-2012 07:47 PM

A certain Scottish werewolf ;)
But I won't spoil anything for you xD
Right now I'm reading one of those new fantasy romance books I started, it just arrived in the post yesterday. I think you'd like them, the main character is a red head with attitude :D

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 07:51 PM

Ooh a red hair with atitude? Sounds a bit like Kiara then. -smirks- Sounds awesome.

I just finished the fourth book in taht other series I told you about, the guild of teh cowry catchers and I can safely say that I did NOT expect what has been happening! They're just...I love Silveo! He's brilliant!

The Roze 07-20-2012 07:58 PM

I might try reading that once I finish with all the books I'm reading at the moment. It sounds good :D
And yes, Raine Benares is awesome xD

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 08:04 PM

You can actually listen to the first three books online with a few pictures. THe voices aren't perfect but teh author actually reads the book and made the pod cast with some other writer friends and you can download the book free rather than buying it if you want too which is good. It's really accessible. Here's a link to the first podcast episode if you want to read it.

You can also see the cover of the book. Silveo looks so adorable! He's so small compared to Gerard!

Guild Of The Cowry Catchers Podcast 1

The Roze 07-20-2012 08:07 PM

Ooh, thank you!
I shall certainly read it when I have time :)

I'm almost up to date with the Raine Benares series, there are 6 books out at the moment and I'm on book 4

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 08:12 PM

Some voices are a bit iffy but overall it's not too bad. That and it's not abridged!

It always feels good to catch up with a series but then you've got to wait for AGES for the next book!

The Roze 07-20-2012 08:15 PM

Well I'm not sure if the 6th one is the last one or not... I hope not, I love this series.
The book I'm reading right now is actually the one Felicia Day is holding at the start of this video

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 08:39 PM

That's pretty cool that you're reading the same book as Filicia Day. Then again I supose if you like a certain genre you're bound to read the same thing as someone else eventually.

You HAVE to listen to this song! I was looking up that anime Loveless and I found the opening and ending songs. The ending song is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!

Michiyuki - Ending of Loveless - by Kaori Hikati - lyrics in Japanese with English translation underneath

The Roze 07-20-2012 08:42 PM

Well the reason I started reading the books was because she recommended them in her video blog ^^
That is a very sweet song... :')
And yay! Gino is finally appearing in our RP!

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 08:53 PM

I love it! I don't know why but I just love that song.
Felicia Day has excelent taste! I really feel sorry for our room mate in uni. If you, me and Forkz are talking about all our nerdy/geeky obsessions and they're not intoit at all...yeah...awkward. Either that or we'll convert them.

The Roze 07-20-2012 08:55 PM

Let's keep an open mind, they might be good fun :D
And yes Felicia Day has amazing taste. Her video blog is really funny too, she releases a new episode every monday ^^

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 08:59 PM

Hmm...I might just need to start following her. I've seen one or two episodes/clips but I haven't actually watched one fully.

The Roze 07-20-2012 09:10 PM

You should, they are very brilliant ^^
Or maybe I'm just obssessed. I just like her because she's not like other celebrities. She seems more real ^^

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 09:16 PM

Fair enough. I love her in the guild anyway and the few clips I've seen were good.

The Roze 07-20-2012 09:17 PM

Have you watched all of the Guild?

Magician Girl Mirani 07-20-2012 09:22 PM

So far I've only watched the first season. Codex is brilliant!
