Went out to lunch with Chris today :D the chinese place at the pru is actually pretty delicious. Probably because the food isn't sitting out for an hour like at most fast food places... they go through it too fast during the lunch rush! Yum orange chicken (also, funny because it is the only orange chicken that tastes like I think it should taste...)

I also... went to Barnes & Noble XD They only had 1 Tanith Lee book so I didn't bother since it wasn't the one(s) I was looking for, but I picked up Stalking Darkness (so now I can finish Luck in the Shadows and start the next one quickly if I want), Kushiel's Scion (I couldn't resist, I can't WAIT to start it), and The Bone Doll's Twin (I tried to read the 3rd book in the trilogy and couldn't remember who a bunch of people are, so I picked up this book to both complete my collection (Erin technically owns the first one, then I read it and hijacked the series and bought the others) and to remind myself who is who and what role they played in Tamir's birth and the death of her twin :)

I probably would have spent a lot more time there but alas, it was my lunch hour and I didn't have *all* day ;)

I can't wait to get home tonight and play some Gears of War with Chris and watch a movie :D Gears of War is really fun so far. I HAD to switch the camera so it was inverted because I couldn't control it otherwise and it was completely weirding me out. We aren't that far, but we played for about an hour :D

I love the Bone Doll's Twin :D I have a soft spot for the characters in her first series, but I think the plot and writing gets a lot more sophisticated in the new one <3 I haven't read the third one though and I think I need to read the whole series again xD But I don't own them >:

Yeah, Bone Doll's Twin etc are SO dark and just feel more "mature" than the other ones. But I still love the first series so far (I assume you mean the Nightrunner series). I really love the characters in it and I'm really glad I was able to pick up the second book so I can keep on going :D

And yeah, I picked up the third one and I was like "...who? is that the lady that killed her twin or did she do X or Y or... oh wow who the hell is he?" I pretty much only remember Tamir and Ki, and everyone else is pretty "lol who are you again?" Oops :/ I'm hoping that a brief skimover of parts of the first two books will jog my memory enough and I won't have to fully reread them ^^;
