How is Thrawn?


I've been meaning to start Outbound flight for awhile.

Decided to leave a bit of an update: I'm currently reading The Lightning Thief: the first book in the Percy Jackson series, Crimes and Punishment, and Guards! Guards!

Every summer I reread Everyman's Pocket Classics: Stories of the Sea. If you don't know, Everyman's is a publishing company that I found through their poetry and short story anthologies. They publish both modern and classic authors, so if you want to discover new authors, I suggest getting a copy of one of their themed anthologies.

What did the toilet say to the bath tub?

"I'm hungry for an apple."

I'm reading "The Lord of the Rings" now for the third time, this time with intent to pay attention. It reads more like a field guide than a novel; Tolkein loves his scenery. I also have started to notice the themes of offering refuge, inheritance/fate, facing the dangers and discomfort of the real world, things I didn't bother to notice earlier, and things you wouldn't get out of it from the movies.

I'm also reading Pilgrim's progress; as ham-fisted and blatant as it is in its message (the art and craft of literature wasn't exactly developed back then), I think it has been a worthwhile read; I wouldn't have otherwise known that Christian's wife set out as well.
