I never get tired of reading.
Michele, I’m conflicted about some of the characters in the LKH series. I often find myself empathizing with Richard more than Anita. I guess that’s because I think I’d react the same way he does to the things he’s forced to do. Anita wants him to react the way she does, but how many of us could do that? Not me. I’ll never be accused of being a kick-butt heroine. That said, I really enjoy the series. LKH has gotten me to invest emotion in her characters. Therefore I get mad at Anita or sympathize with Asher. I care about what happens to them. And that’s the highest praise I can give an author.
Woohoo! I bought Janet Evanovich’s Eleven on Top at Barnes & Noble today. I’ll need a complete change of pace after LKH’s series.
Kitty report. I’d be an obsessive pet owner. The kitten didn’t seem to feel well last night. It slept straight through from late afternoon till the next morning. No eating, no pooping, no playing. I was so worried that I kept waking up every few hours to make sure it was still alive. At three in the morning I was looking in the Yellow Pages to see where the nearest vet was just in case I needed to take the kitten in. Of course, the kitten was back to normal today. Can we say neurotic?
