"And He'll Do All His Dancing On You..."

Dear Lloyd Alexander:

Westmark has officially taken over my life.

I shall attempt to make an example or two:

Book Review: Harry Potter really awesome just like Lloyd Alexander but cooler remember Prydain? this even better &c &c &c
Soujin: But Westmark is better than Prydain!
Book Review: That's totally irrelevant, hon.
Soujin: But--but--Westmark--!

Newspaper: "Conrad's farmstead fits all-year theme &c insert article here..."
Soujin: O. M. G. Duke Conrad's estate in my newspaper?!
Reality Check: Hellooooo, dearie.
Soujin: Oh, wait.
Soujin: *finishes article*
Soujin: Ha ha. Um. That never happened. Ha ha. Oh, God, I lose....

That was all extremely embarrassing.

Also, I speak out loud to the people in those books while I am reading the books, demmit.

I need to sue you for my sanity and/or my life back--yet, somehow, I am so mad in love with your people and said books that I would rather fangirl you. Waugh.

Also I am writing Stock/Jellinek. Kill me now.

Love,
Soujin

Please do. They're a lot more mature than a lot of his other books, and just very, very good. As Kali once put it, they're also essentially 'Les Mis on a diet', which means everything about LM, by the way. Including Mix 'n' match slash, barricades, adorable street urchins, unrealised love, and--well, no God, which is sort of an essential part of LM, but.

*is getting rambly and incoherent, alas*

Anyway. Tres good. Read them, yes. Ha.

*finds it vaguely appropriate that she stole Zara's journal for this, don't mind her*
