Sometimes I am embarrassingly slow.

psycho_tabby's lj. Because I'm lazy, and also, have many things to get done today before I can start on the second book!!!
Addiction is ignoring your inbox and flist and housemate and pets all night so you can read TEMERAIRE from start to finish, occasionally pausing to shout 'I was hatched! From an egg!' and 'Cows!' at bemused housemate, and much later sobbing piteously at 'You came'.
And then friending her lj and capering joyfully around the room when you find out that she's signed up for books 4-6, and then reading the short story set between the first and second books and then going to bed at a really stupid time and lying awake thinking about the characters and then crying a bit again at the sad part. (or that could be the pms)
In conclusion, Naomi Novik rocks like a rocking thing.
