lizbeeI read the new Russell novel over a week ago now (ebooks, man! The way of the future! Boos to the Sony eBookstore, though, which doesn't sell ebooks outside of North America. YOU'VE MISSED THE WHOLE POINT OF THE INTERNET, GUYS!), but I was holding off on doing a review until I could express myself in a medium other than flaily hands.
That day has not yet come, but I have discovered the code for sparkly text, and that's just as good.
THE LANGUAGE OF BEES WAS AWESOME AND I HAVE THE SPARKLY TEXT TO PROVE IT!
SRSLY, aside from the fact it was probably the best in the series since MREG or BEEK, but with the wider resonance of JUST, I haven't had that much fun reading a novel since Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I just looked over the chat transcript -- for I was talking tocesario as I read -- and it is most flaily. (One day I'll have to find the transcript from that time we read the leaked Deathly Hallows together. OH THERE WAS EXCITEMENT. And eyestrain.)
And now I have to wait a year until the next one, and it is VERY FRUSTRATING, although re-reading the whole series plus the Doyle canon does give me something to do with myself in the DW hiatus. (Because I was short of things to do, obviously.)
SPARKLY TEXT! I'M AS EXCITED AS A FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD TWIFAN WITH HER FIRST MYSPACE PAGE!
(Er, try me in a few more days for intelligent commentary.)
