Okay I really, really liked Stardust. Gaiman was awesome, as usual.
Haha and I love the part where the star fell too. She swears really softly, and then moans about her leg. But it's quite sad that Tristran had to die, despite the fact that he's only half-mortal D:
And NOBODY remembers Bilquis (American Gods) as merely roadkill, I tell you. Especially guys. They drool all over her chapter. Some (non-guys) even write fanfic about it ;D
Now I'm on Fragile Things, which I think somewhat pales in comparison to the novels, but which is still quite interesting.

Uh, I think I'm supposed to do a post-WEP post. But I'm feeling really lazy, so... someday, then :D I'm not sure it was worth the gazillion events+activities (mostly for AV and RGSRCY, and on one occasion my 6RosythGEPers06) I missed for it, but well...
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
If you don't know who wrote that, YOU PHAIL LIT.
