"
I have loved Connie Willis' other books, and I love books with a slow pace and lots of detail, so I thought this would be a slam-dunk for me. It wasn't. If the last 50 or so pages hadn't been really good, this would have gone onto the "worst books ev

This is the one I thought you would like: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23... We have the audiobook.
Yes, that DOES look like my sort! :)Bonnie Gayle wrote: "Have you heard of this zombie book? It looks like it may be your type of read! http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/70..."

This is starting to sound familiar. Hmm. Now I'm not as excited to read it!
Yup. Remember that Amber wasn't thrilled with it either?Bonnie Gayle wrote: "The book 2 that I have checked out right now?

Too bad that I'm less excited about this series than I was. Book 2 just wasn't all that great. I'll still read 3 though.

Spring!"
I'd have to read the book it came from to be sure, but I would guess it's turned as in "made rotten". Much in the way that some parents don't want their kids to read comic books or fantasy.
I was never sure about the meaning of the Alcott quote you added last. Do you think it means turned, as in influenced, or turned as in spoiled or made rotten? The latter would make sense in the context of the quote, but I've never before heard the word 'turned' used in that way.
Nope, just my same old ring. This picture is actually a few months old, so definitely not my new ring. It's funny though, since it's a mirror shot, it looks like it's on my left hand.
Thanks for the nice comment on my poem:) What is it about creepy fridge poetry anyway? Mine always turns out creepy, or slightly x-rated!
Nice icon! You know, now that I look at it again, it DOES look like you around the eyes and jaw line...you must have been really tanned though, because in actuality you're almost as pale as me!
Hi Alisa! You found me! Welcome to goodreads, I hope you enjoy! PS Did you notice my icon? :)
