ratcreature: reading RatCreature (reading)

I loved Earth Logic, so much so that I actually have delayed reading Water Logic, because that is the last that's available in the series (I'm actually clueless whether more parts are planned, do you know?), and I don't want the story to end (I have this odd thing about actually watching or reading the last parts for a series.) I got fanart ideas for it while reading too, though as usual I am really slow with realizing anything, for now they just went into my ever growing "fanart ideas" file.

Magic Bites was kind of "meh" for me. I mean, it was a quick and pleasant read, but I found that it didn't really stick in my memory, neither plot nor characters. Though this idea of magic and science coming in alternating waves was kind of neat. I might read the next parts, but I'm not that anxious about it.

The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay was as entertaining as everyone said it would be, and I really liked the characters. In contrast I didn't care that much for The Mysteries of Pittsburgh.

A Companion to Wolves was kind of like original slash, fun to read, and I liked the world (and it had a neat twist toward the end), but the names of the people (all the such-and-such-ulfrs) drove me crazy, because I have trouble remembering names anyway, and there were so many characters and all the names were -olfrs, and -ulfrs. And plenty had before/after wolf-bonding names too. On the bright side at least it had a list of characters at the beginning, which helped to look them up.
