Another flyby

I'm back from Ireland and the house was still standing when I arrived. Praise to the saints! Of course there was a veritable Everest of laundry to help keep it upright, but all in all things on the homefront weren't nearly as chaotic as I'd pictured them possibly being while I was a away. More on the trip later. In the meantime, here's a book update to tide you over.

#90 Out of Control by Suzanne Brockmann

#91 Into the Night by Suzanne Brockmann

#92 Over the Edge by Suzanne Brockmann

#93 Possession by A.S. Byatt

#94 Gone Too Far by Suzanne Brockmann

#95 Flashpoint by Suzanne Brockmann

#96 Breaking Point by Suzanne Brockmann

#97 Hard Target by Suzanne Brockmann

Yes, one of those things is not like the others. lol

I'm totally stealing your "Airplane Reading" genre line I'll have you know!

I did actually take pictures, which totally isn't like me. But, I can't find the cable to upload them from the digital to the computer. Must keep searching.

By the way, I finally saw the premiere of BSG. Don't read the next few comments if you haven't seen it yet.

Ah, Leoben! He's as obsessed with Kara as Caprica 6 is with Gaius and yet I love him anyway. How are you enjoying the new season thus far? I think the show is pretty ballsy to go with a storyline which is supposed to make the audience at least sympathetic to the idea of suicide bombers. Nice inversion of the current political climate.

Yes! It's the CKR effect. I shouldn't be so happy to see Leoben acting all creepy and obsessive, but CKR just makes me love him in spite of myself.

I've never watched the show regularly, but I'm finding the current storylines compelling enough that I'm going back and catching myself up so that I can stop being lost in the details. I'm fascinated by the, as you say, inversion of our current situation. I'm really enjoying it!

I'm still looking forward to hearing about how your trip went!

I'm glad that you're playing catch up. It's fascinating to see how the characters evolve and devolve. What's your take on C/Kasey? Do you think she's a fully human child that they're using to control Kara or is she really a human/Cylon hybrid? I don't think that the Cylons would have been so consumed by Sharon's Hera, if there were other viable hybrids in the offing so I'm curious.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing she's another hybrid given everything else that's going on. She's frighteningly adorable, though. I'm dreading the bad end I'm afraid she'll probably come to. :-D
