trying my best, ok that's a lie. trying desperately to finish the book 'fire me up'.
(Qianz, i'm sure when you read this you'll be laughing your head off at the fact that i'm trying 'desperately' to finish the book, whahahahaha)uh, so that i can sell it back tomorrow and hopefully get some money back.
the last time i read book 1 of the aisling book is i think in J1. and that time i told myself i'm not going to read the next, or at least something along those lines. all i remembered was a feeling that is just so uncomfortable. something regarding the storyline and the main character that irked me... or something.
but then, that thought flew out of the window when Qianz bought the book for over a year. now the feeling came back again. yup.
the reason is that i find that this main character, her name's aisling, is someone of capabilities. but the fact that she swoons and throw herself at the dragon willingly at the price of her pride just makes me... uh... uncomfortable.
ya ya ya, she can't resist the dragon, yup yup yup, but before you guys or my mum is going to say 'i'm sure you'll be worse when your time comes', i'll say that she walked out on him twice. TWICE. so if she can walk out twice, i can't see what's the problem with resisting and also retaining at least a shred of pride.
i mean if someone betrayed you or something, wouldn't you hike up your alert the next time this someone appears again? or at least be a constant or not nagging voice in your head to becareful? ok i suppose her reason is the dragon is simply irresistable and all that mushy stuff that i'm going to throw up soon, so fair enough.
and once again, the book throws me back into writing-story-mode again, as i have with the previous one. this time a more coherent and reasonable and PRACTICAL one i hope... looks like i'll have to create another blog for that. hehehe. too bad there ain't any fanfiction fandom for it. perhaps thats the saving grace, if not i'll be having a blast at that one.
i didn't know having sex too many times in a day can lead to death. whahahaha.well managed to finish the book. ain't what i had expected. cos i expected something more bombastic, something like tearing of hair or something else, you know, some fighting scenes. nevermind. selling the book tomorrow. hopefully get some money back and contribute to the cardigan i'm going to buy.
and hopefully a piece of ost.
