It seems a long time ago now that I first read Shiver -- the first book in the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy. But looking back I started it on the plane ride to BEA and finished it there in the conference center, fingers gripping the cover tightly, while sitting on the floor in one of the many autograph lines. And now it's May again and BEA is right around the corner and I emerge from my recent and nasty reading slump stupor to find a copy of Linger sitting in my mailbox like a glove thrown down in the dirt. "I will be the one to pull you out," it whispers to me slyly. "Just open me up and take a sip. I promise--one sip is all it will take." And I look at it with fear and longing written all over my face. "You promise?" I ask intently. "Because it's been a long walk in the cold and I'm not sure I can take another disappointment." "Just open me up," it says, confidence written all over its cover. And so I do. And everythin...
Spock was my first (and probably longest-running) fictional character crush. So the new movie made me happy.
ReplyDeleteI think this is the first time recently that I haven't felt let down by a remake.
deety, that makes me so happy. I have always loved Spock. And I completely agree. It was unbelievably refreshing (and so rare lately) to have my expectations exceeded. I wanna see it again!
ReplyDeleteyesss, loved it too. i must say scotty was my fave!
ReplyDeletebabysitter is being arranged. i must see.
ReplyDeletevvb32 reads, Scott was hilarious. He came in at just the right time.
ReplyDeleteLiza, it's SO good. I get all happy just remembering. :)
Yes I loved it, too, and loved Spock, too! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely go see it again!
ReplyDeleteWe were going to finally catch Wolverine last weekend, but that character isn't exactly my favorite of the X-Men so I suggested we just watch Star Trek again instead.
It was still just as good the second time around.
Amy, it's all about the Spock.
ReplyDeletedeety, good to hear! I haven't seen Wolverine but it just didn't look anywhere near as good as Star Trek.
