Yay for the library. I've recently been heading down to J'ville library. It is small and cool. I am also pleased 'cause the library issues you books for 4 weeks. I thought that it was only 3 and that I had overdue books and would have to pay a fine. But I didn't. Rockn.
Non-fiction book! The Corset, by Valerie Steele. Very cool book on where corsets came from and their place in culture, from like the 17th century to now. Lovely pictures. I didn't think I'd enjoy it that much 'cause I'm more into finding out about how they are actually *made*, but I did enjoy it, alot! So, I think I might be ready to read Corsets and Crinolines. I don't think I'm ready to make anything from it (it has much on making them), but I'm keen to read more about it now. I've been offered the loan of it, so I think I'll take that up!
Fiction book! Kushiel's Dart, by Jacqueline Carey. Alternate past Earth. Political in a fun way. The main character is likeable and also enjoys pain, a lot. It is important in the story and so is brought up often. I like how it is written and described though, not gratuitous. She's written a bunch more novels (this is the first) and I'm keen to read more, hopefully in the same world.
I am still sick. School is tomorrow. I am feeling rested so it should be OK.
