    @Ametsu the Ninja:

    I'm watching the anime right now...Only because I'm pretty sure the last part that I'm reading won't be in it because I haven't seen any part in any movie of it.

    Exactly...;m; The one time when you're not thinking of buying it is when the book you need next time is there...;m; Like I'm pretty sure the first time I was buying God Child all the last 4 volumes were there...and those are the ones I need...all I can every find is volume 8 and I still need the other 2 before then...;m;

    Yes, ~ Read your book~ Then... you have the option of watching the anime! (Count of Monte Cristo, that is.)

    Ugh! Book stores! They can be so unreliable.
    None of my book stores in my area ever have D.Gray Man volumes 11 and 12. Except once, only once, when I had quickly bought their only copy of #11 for my friend.

    I will eventually read it...I just need to finish Castle in the Air (Well, The Count of Monte Cristo first, then Castle in the Air).

    That is SO WEIRD. Why do book stores always stock the stuff that people don't need or already have?! Like the only have volume 4 of DOGs in all the bookstores I've seen when I need volume 3...;m;

    Okay. My inner book-fangirl squeed. You haven't read House of Many Ways yet? Right? Don't if you haven't. Read that one first...

    I'm constantly HUNTING for Castle in the Air in the bookstore, to get a copy for a friend. But they only EVER have HMC and House of Many Ways...

    I will put that first book on meh list. It sounded nice.

    I probably will check that guy out since I think I've looked him up before and read about his books before...XD They sound pretteh out there, but I've never heard of any books like his so I that really peaks my interest.

    Lists are fun, aren't they! XD

    I haven't read anything that's just a hint of fantasy. The stuff I read takes you different worlds or environments. Actually, the WondLa series by DiTerlizzi is a light, but fun read. It's a nice little break from reading fluffy writing haha XP Right now, I've yet to finish the Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks...that one's not that bad, but I've had the 2nd book in possession for a while now and I haven't picked it up yet to read it. Hmm, makes me wonder what that actually says about the series.

    Paula Volsky's books are a delightful read too. It's just a shame she's quit writing. She's one of those underdog writers that puts out great material, but disappears just like a one hit wonder.

    If you wanna try modern surrealism, you could try out some of Haruki Murakami's novels too. His books are pretty interesting, but it makes you think too much, either out of confusion, or reflection of life. I think I have more suggestions, but I can't think of them right now. I'll have to make a list too haha XD
