Villainosity
Jun. 10th, 2012 09:51 pmI've been reading A Game of Thrones, or re-reading it. I got two and a half books into the series back in Cali, but quit reading them because let's face it, they're a bit of a downer.
Right now I'm about three quarters of the way through the first book and enjoying it a lot more than I expected to. Maybe I've put on a few years' worth of cynicism since the last time I read this stuff, but I'm enjoying the hell out of watching the villains sashaying around being villainous. I can't help it! They're having so much fun!
I've been working my way through the TV show and staying more-or-less even with where I am in the books. I'm enjoying that too, though I think I like the opening credits more than anything that's actually happened in the show. That's not even a dig at the show, they're just really cool credits. Also, prettyboys. In armor. Hell yes.
At the time of this writing, there are three cats sprawled on the bed next to me. I just hope they don't decide that their comfy sprawl space doesn't suddenly start looking like an equally comfy brawl space.
