hirikosaunders: (Uglies: Tally)

I'm one hell of a butler.

Okay, first things first: I know I haven't said how much I love the Uglies series (Uglies, Pretties, Specials and Extras) by Scott Westerfeld. I'm not sure why it's taken me this long to comment on them (or at least to comment on them at length). They are well written, thought provoking and all of the characters are interesting, developed and they take you on their journey. It has a lot of concepts in it that are likely to provoke controversy and discussion, in a good way, and nothing is ever simple or cut and dry. The world is complex which makes reading it over again worth it as you notice little things you hadn't before.

Secondly, I have finally gotten to see Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler). I am still processing the ending. I am so glad I found it, even if it did take me way too long to decide to track down. I plan on checking out the manga as soon as possible. Probably tomorrow if things go well. And "London Bridge is Falling Down" will never be the same again.

Other than that work is going decently. I am thankful that I'm not getting a lot of hours at the moment because I'm still trying to take care of a few things, but I will be glad when things pick up so after I get everything taken care of so I'll be ready for more hours, at least I'm hoping I'll get more as it gets closer to Christmas.

Ah, Kuroshitsjui is so goooooood. ♥ Definitely check out the manga; it's amazing and it hasn't ended yet! :D

"London Bridge is Falling Down" will never be the same again.

THAT'S WHAT I SAID when I first saw it. ^_____^ Such a creepy show. XD I love it.

I know. It is so awesome. Yeah, I'll be starting the manga today.

I think I was waiting for it to be licensed, or I thought it already was for some reason.

So creepy, and yet amazing. I need an icon, but that means getting rid of one. That won't be easy.
