Reading Wednesday

Drive by:

Progressing slowly through Too Like the Lightning. Still reminds me of Diamond Age in the setting.

A Bad Bad Thing has happened in Stand Still Stay Silent, so I have had to resort to comfort reading: the manga Bunny Drop at the moment. The event in SSSS should not be discussed here, because it is a spoiler like whoa.

Finished with the reason for re-reading Fruits Basket, so I need to bundle them all up and put them back in the basement bookcase from whence they came.

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who was recently traumatized by SSSS. Not getting over THAT anytime soon.

You know not to read the last volume of Bunny Drop, right?

I have read the whole series previously. Too late: I already had the need-brain-bleach experience.

It's got a bizarre split personality going on. The first half is from Daikichi's viewpoint, and it's warm and funny and sweet and *different*. Then it goes mostly to Rin's viewpoint, and all the sudden, it's a more conventional shoujo series.

And then it goes id-tastic with the Elektra complex.
