Yes, I CAN write three reviews in one month! D'Ammassa is done! Look at me go! The next one's a long one, though.
And I'm more than a little bit distracted watching all the kerfluffle over the debut of the new Webber musical. Vive la discussion!

Boom, the Kanari review is up. See? I can do things quickly! I totally can!
As my friend AJ would say, "booyah, bitchnads." On to the next!

Just in time for the season of love, it's the second Meadows review. How fantastic can I get? We'll see if the next book also takes me a month to read (dammit, Anne! You're going to be amassing books forever if you don't step it up!).

And now there's a Zach review! And I'm doing it all without a PC in my house, folks. That is my dedication. But now... now, the next one may take a bit, because I can't help but see what book is next in my queue...
Wish me luck. I have a hardhat, a case of beer, and an attitude that will not be said no to.

Sweet baby Jesus. The plague. The computer crash. The dying family members. I would not be surprised if the sun also burnt out. But I'm back, the Microprose review is up, and if anyone tries to tell me I can't do what I want to do, why, I will punch that person in the nose.
So there!
So there!

Well, I'm still working on the Microprose game, so nobody get too excited about a review happening imminently. However, since it's the season for giving thanks (at least here in the States), I'd just like to thank two people (operating independently, I believe, but who knows? It could be a vast Anne-themed conspiracy of two people) who took the time to send me emails wailing in histrionic distress over the fact that my reviews contain spoilers, and after reading several entire reviews they found that those materials had been spoiled for them.
So, cats and kitties, check it out--this website has spoilers on it! Spoilers. SPOILERS! If you discover that you have read through several entire reviews and they have spoiled things for you, please, feel free to email me instead of, I don't know... not reading any more? At what point does a reader say, "Well, yes, the LAST four reviews were full of spoilers, but maybe THIS one will be different!"?
All entertainment aside, however, I have put a spoiler notice up. So I can make fewer visits to Whinertown in the future. I've never liked it there; the food is shit, yet everyone keeps going to the same restaurant and bitching about the slow service.
(The really humorous part is that one of the materials that was "spoiled" for a reader was the 1925 Julian/Chaney film. Shame on me, giving away the plot of a classic film from eighty-five years ago! WAY TO ASSUME, ANNE.)

Oh, my god, how did I lose a month? Stupid life making me do life things. Anyway, the Lewis review is up--break out the wine!--and we'll see if I can't be faster on the next one. A book a month will never do. I'll be here until I die.
