Everything sucks right now
AEL: The Fortune of War, three AP books, the rest of The Dark Is Rising Sequence, The Westing Game, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, SU eps, Frozen short films, Zootopia, The Surgeon’s Mate
The Fortune of War by Patrick O’Brian — After enjoying the previous book so much, I definitely loved this direct continuation of the story. I was wondering for a while how this author could possibly have written twenty freaking books in this series, but it...AEL: Jam, Aubrey/Maturin 3-5, AP 6-10, The Twilight Saga, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, RK Hokkaido, RK Musical, The Ship of the Dead, Sunshine, SU eps, Over Sea Under Stone
Geez, what happened to this. Tumblr addiction happened to this. OK, the shortest of short mentions (as pre-existing notes allow) for each item until I get caught the fuck up here. Jam by Yahtzee Croshaw — I love this book. It’s a great disaster survival...AEL: SU eps and soundtrack, The Sword in the Stone, Wonder Woman, Garment of Shadows, A Wizard of Earthsea, The Queen of Air and Darkness
Steven Universe episodes — HOLY SHIT, you guys. Rose might not have done it after all??? I am so overcome by this, a possibility that had never occurred to me, that I’m not sure I can comment on anything else in this set of episodes. I mean, meeting the...AEL dump
Steven Universe episodes — I watched these episodes around when they came out, but then I put off writing up my thoughts about them for so long I forgot what they were about XD Finally I got brother caught up, and thereby rewatched them myself, so here are...AEL: All Creatures, Skyrim, SU eps, The Language of Bees
I feel like I started writing this AEL already and then maybe lost the draft somehow, ’cause I could swear the SU eps in particular already had some thoughts about them somewhere, and that there were more than just the things I can think of at the moment lined...AEL: Middlemarch, The Stepsister Scheme, BtAS eps, The Cabin in the Woods, SU Eps
Middlemarch by George Eliot — I’m tempted to start this in the same way I started my second set of Pale Fire thoughts THERE JUST AREN’T WORDS FOR HOW AMAZING THIS BOOK IS. It interests me the extent to which Eliot points out ironies in the way men...AEL: Frozen fic, SU ep, Pale Fire, Moana
I’ve got a separate post going for all the Christmas movies I manage to watch this season. There are three so far, and I figured it would make kindof a nice log to have them all together in the same place. Though that’s assuming I do watch any more than...AEL: JatH#19, Middlemarch, SU ep, Fantastic Beasts
Jem and the Holograms #19 — Somehow I have quite a few thoughts about this issue; we’ll see if I can remember them all. To start out with, I’m not sure how I feel about the new art. I can’t say I dislike it, and I do think it fits with the tone...AEL: No.6 ep.9, FMA vol.5, JatH #18, Justice Hall, SU eps and book, Princessx2EA, Chely Wright album
No.6 episode 9 — I always appreciate when a visual story can demonstrate death and horror without making me look at too much violence and gore. There are ways of showing the intensity of a horrific scene without resorting to a visual bloodbath. This episode did...AEL: Riordanverse fic, Beowulf, No.6 eps, Justice Hall, SU eps
4 days until I turn 36! Welcome Home by Kazymyr — The second fic in the series I mentioned last time was adorably sweet. Of course I love to see characters falling in love because they like things about each other, but it’s even better when their bond...AEL: FMA vol.3 and a LOT of SU episodes
18 days until I turn 36! Fullmetal Alchemist volume 3 — I don’t remember Winry very well from my last read, but I have a vague idea that I liked her pretty well aside from her abusive tendencies. I enjoyed her introduction in this volume (aside from her...AEL: FMA ch.6, SU ep, BSSMC 36, Unbound, JatH 16
Fullmetal Alchemist chapter 6 — The glimpse of Trisha we get in Edward’s dream at the beginning of this chapter makes me think unflattering thoughts about this and many other visual stories (particularly manga and anime). A character that doesn’t...AEL: WoW Chen Stormstout, BSSMC 34, JatH 15, Codex Born, Busou Renkin 1, Steven Universe fanart/episode, Dan Brown article
Intro — I am generally too lazy to write proper reviews of art I experience. I do seek to discuss it, quite eagerly, with people around me, but oftentimes that intention is thwarted when literally nobody I know has experienced the same art. Sure, there’s...
