harborshore: (saving the world)
Happy Valentine's Day, my darlings. I was supposed to have a story about girls falling in love, but things are the way things are and it will be late. I'm really sorry.

Instead, I'm going to talk about two books where girls save themselves and their people, and how even history can be changed.


Libyrinth by Pearl North.

New default, many other new icons. Yes, as of last night I have a paid account, I caved and used the waiver from [livejournal.com profile] modillian because I wanted Barbara Gordon (and Martha Jones) and couldn't figure out what to delete. ♥

ETA: I see today has officially been declared to be International Weekend of Friending The People You've Been Too Shy To Friend. I will probably do some of that later, so, um, hi? And on the off-chance that anyone decides to friend me, hello and welcome. *grins*

In other news, I'm spending my time working on my literature review, breathing, skiing, writing political poetry, mentally composing irate monologues about John Mayer and his utter, utter, (racist) douchetasticness, and reading YA novels.

Note: This is not the first book I read this year, but it's the first review I'm writing. Also, Mik? I'm stealing your format. ♥
