MOVIES
Spiderman ... rock ... my ... panties. Seriously, the man is gnawable. And QAF! (s'all I'll say for now 'bout it). Shrek 2 was hysterical (Donkey and Puss in Boots my favourites ... I just love that pussy ... hehehehe). Butterfly Effect was disturbing and ultra cool. (Look ma'! Ashton Kutcher CAN act!). Am waiting to see Spartan, Arthur (although I'm increasingly ambiguous about it), Catwoman (rowrl indeed), and will buy Van Helsing and Hellboy when they come out.

BOOKS
I just finished reading 'Coraline' (Coraline, not Caroline). Neil Gaiman. Is. A. God. Seriously disturbing material. I love the Sci Fi bookclub. Have requested NG's Endless Nights and a few other goodies. I'm starting to read 'Peter Pan' (you know, the original? Although, hmmmmmm Jason Isaacs ... *homer drool*) and I have Steven King's 'Dreamcatcher' in the queue. Spectrum 8 (fantasy and horror art) was spectacular and is on my nighttable for easy perusal (O Brom, how I adore thee).

LIFE
Work is great. Life is great. I'm going to Cuba in August, and I'm slightly panicking.

S'it for now. :)

You probably already know this, but some genius has linked Neil Gaiman's blog to livejournal so you can friend him.

I totally agree he is a genius. He is a drug, and I am his pusher at my bookstore. Out of everything I've read, I found Coraline the scariest of the bunch.

There's some scarier stuff in Smoke and Mirrors. The one hidden in the introduction for people who read introductions gave me the willies.

I think the button eyes in Coraline are scarier, but I agree Smoke in Mirrors is pretty darn scary. I tend to prefer the pretty stories: Stardust, Sandman: the Dream Hunters, and Neverwhere.

*Smoke AND Mirrors, not In. Oops.
