Over the fall I was enjoying a reread of How Does a Single Blade of Grass Thank the Sun? by Doretta Lau, and I'm currently getting into the thick of Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. Next up to bat will be Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson :3
I haven't gotten too far, yet. So far it isn't bad. I wish I hadn't seen the movies to be honest, though. It keeps screwing me up when it comes to picturing the characters, and whatnot. >.> Hopefully each book gets progressively better, because I sort of own the boxset, lol.
(What did you find off-putting about it? Was it just not your cup of tea story-wise, or was it the narrative from a 12-year-old's POV?)
Uh-oh. ^^; This is one of those times where I hope I'm an easier reader. Could be that Rick Riordan explored that potential, if not later in the Percy Jackson/Olympian series, then in one of his others. (He has tons centralized in mythology).
Edit: Have since started and finished "The Magicians of Caprona" (Book Two in the Chrestomanci series by Diana Wynne Jones) and I am now moving on to Book Three in the series, "Witch Week". ^^
Edit again: ._. On Book Two of "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters".
Most recently, I read the Inferno, Art of Living, and Siddhartha. I'm now on to Purgatorio. I'll take another break after I finish it before reading Paradiso.
