Okay...well, I could babble on about any number of things, but I don't think you guys really want to hear about the Power Rangers, so I'll have to sit on my gusto and ask if anyone else found Elvenblood a tad repetitive? I skimmed it in the bookstore and it seems that it's just another woman having trouble dealing with obnoxious men while another girl undergoes the same ordeal of proving to men that she does have a brain. I get enough of this in real life, only without the happy ending and I'm a little frustrated that there always -is- a happy ending to these stories, because it doesn't -do- anything. I don't think it helps much, because the happy ending is always there in the books, while in real life it's mostly -not- there. Comments?

It was one of the better ones and highly amusing. Hopefully more people have/will get it soon. Wind to thy wings and may you get your heart's desire.

WHERE?!?!?! It's more oppresive here! Where is spring I must know and get there! On a different note, last week Iris commented on the fact that she can't believe that some books are banned. I have a list of a lot of books, where and why they were/are baned. Do you all mind if I send them to the list or should I send it to her private?

I think we melted (at least those of us in NY, USA have!) On 6/21-Matt J wrote he had a list of banned books and reasons why they were banned. I'd be interested in seeing that list. Either here or by email to me personally. Thanks Matt. Donna ------------------------------ End of MERCEDES-LACKEY Digest 54 ********************************
