Books and letters

Remarkably, I got an email back from one of those poor folk down at the City Council and it was even a well thought out, specifically addressed to ME, kinda email.


Color me shocked.

The article that I had read that had lead to my hissy fit was poorly written, misinformed and basically made myself and its readers that lead this whole nasty little campaign to the Council, look stupid.

Ggggggrrrr.

I would love to swing the finger over at the local newspaper here and scream that it was all their fault, pick the lint from my shoulders, and move on.


Shame on me.


I should have done my homework before calling someone in the public eye out onto the carpet.

With all of that said, I would probably do it again.

Check that…..I WILL do it again, I just know it.

******************

I am reading a new book series that I absolutely LOVE. I fell in love with the characters and the make up of their lives right away and got sucked in over my head.


Please keep in mind that I have been feverantly attempting to study for my [read: sucky] math final but my mind continues to wander back to the story line. I will sneak minutes in here and there just to get a glimpse and look forward to when I can put my pencil down and pick up my book.

By industry standards, she is a relatively new author by the name of Vicki Pettersson and the series is titled the “Zodiac” series. With only three books under her belt, she reads like a seasoned author but with none of the markings of someone who has run her character up a wall and has nowhere left to go. She is fresh, current and her storylines suck you in quickly. Usually, I have to fight my way through the first few chapters of any new book and have to forcibly drag myself into understanding what the author wants me to see.

This means either I am a complete tard or this author is just THAT good. I love, love her writing style.

Oh….and in case it matters - as it does to me…..I can always tell that they really ARE good books when the Mister likes them a lot too - and these definitely has his stamp of approval.

Maybe I should write her a letter…..:)
