So, in desperate need to pull myself away from anything vampire related, I went to Borders to find new reading material. Thanks to the outstanding cover art, I found The Child Thief by BROM. It's a great twisted spin on the classic Peter Pan. The pointed earred boy travels from the faerie world to the human world to take wayward children away to his island of Avalon. He steals kiddies pretty much. I'm totally in love with the book, and so is the entirety of the Borders store I went to, because the employees all had to tell me their little stories. You should all pick it up. It's the adult Harry Potter book.
I've also been reading the Courtney Crumrin comics by Ted Naifeh. Courtney reminds me of like Mandy from Billy and Mandy's Grim Adventures, but she's very much her own person. She and her creepy warlock uncle have all sorts of supernatural adventures. The art is so unique and the story is AMAZINGLY well told for bing 70 percent told through art, if not more.
My car goes in for body repairs today at 9 am. So excited! I'm at least glad the kid had insurance and such a speedy and polite company at that.
Nothing else new.
How are you all doing?

I totally forgot BROM was working on novels. His work is brilliant.
