Ah.

I don't believe in diets, so I'll have one then.

You have no idea how long I've been trying to get the English version of the books (cause the translated one sucks).

And Daniel Radcliffe is cute... little too young, but cute.

I don't believe in them either, I'm just trying to eat more healthily

I've never seen the attraction of the books or the films, but I hope you're enjoying it

Hope it's good news. *hugs back*

They're ok. But I gotta say I've seen some fanfic writers that can do a better job of expressing emotions in their stories.

I guess when it first started (from what I've seen) the focus wasn't really on emotions Then with all the sequels one wood expect more exploration to have been made into the relationships in order to develop the characters. That didn't happen?

Ouch *sends good vibes*

Thanks, I'm sure it'll be fine

Nice!

Yes, yes he is *drools*

Looks up.......... drooling? I don't do drooling

*waves to nekkid Jann as she runs past*

What bothers me isn't the lack of emotions of the characters, but in the storytelling. There's no... feeling in it. Everything is portrayed as a cold hard fact. Maybe it gets better in the later books, cause I only started reading few days ago and I'm only finishing the second one... I hope

Thanks, I'm sure it'll be fine

I'm sure to.

Yes, yes he is *drools*

Obviously you do.

I'm sure to.

Ah, I see what you mean, it's the lack of emotion in the writing of the emotions. I haven't read the later books so I can't comment.

Obviously you do.

not in public

Hm. I scrolled through jumble's latest Martin pic spam and thought I saw Coopie.
So I scrolled back up and it was Martin.

Disturbing, really.

Urgh, I hate fasting blood tests. Last time I had one I was pregnant (glucose tolerance). Personally I tink it's asking for trouble asking any woman not to eat for 12 hours, let alone a pregnant one.

Good luck Friday. Hope you don't have to sit around too long and everything comes back hunky dory.

I've read them all and yes, they do get slightly better as the books go on. You have to remember that the target aurience for these books is the same age as the characters or slightly younger (so, book 1 Harry & co are 11 and the writing style is aimed at 9 -12 year olds.) As the books go on each one gets progressively more mature. I wouldn't say any of them ever reach the level of emotional maturity that some of the fanfics do (although the last one is dark and angsty in a lot of places) but they do start to explore emotional impact of the events more and, particularly, it's protrayed fairly realistically as a teenager might handle it. I actually think the films do a better job of showing the emotional stuff than the bookss do. *shrugs*
If you like the series it's well worth persevering and reading them all. The last one has some real "Oh...! Oh..." moments.

Hmm!




Can I beg a hug from the Woohoos today please? This year just seems to be going from bad to worse for my family and I'm not sure who to worry about most these days.

Steps around of Jumble's drools.

Yeah, I think that might be my main problem. Maybe I'm expecting too much, cause I really did enjoy the movies. We'll see. I'm off to book 3 now.

*giant squishy hugs*

I hope things turn for the better.

Hope everything will be OK for everyone.
Worry can be very draining.

Hi Woohoos! No...I'm not looking for LJ...she met her deadline and can now GIMP in peace. Actually...I was wondering (since I don't visit any other threads anymore...) if someone had referenced the latest Stargate SG-1/Atlantis (and I guess, soon to be Universe) magazine about what they call Sam's "defining moment" during her stint in SGA. Don't want to be repetitive if it's been discussed elsewhere, but I found it most...enlightening.
