WHAT THE WHAT
Finished Cold Days last night and I’m still trying to wrap my head around everything that happened. I enjoy Jim Butcher books for the sheer moving hysteria of them. Like, the majority of this book took place over something like 30 hours and it was crazy how much stuff happened to Harry.
And no, I’m not just talking about his penchant for getting hit in the head with baseball bats. Which happens amusingly often.
ButMolly is the new Winter Lady?!? I…
And Cat Sith. Is that, like, permanent? Because I want the original, scary as “Weren’t there six of you just now?” all get out, I want that guy back. That guy hated Harry and had to fetch Harry a Coke. You can’t get better than that!!
I’m rather ambivalent toward Molly being the Winter Lady, though I’m happy that the White Council will not be a problem from her. Her deal with the svartalves made me raise my eyebrows, as did her new, amazing poise, but…Winter Lady? As in, we’re going to get more fae stuff? Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy it in small doses, but like Harry, I was getting fed up with the backstabbing and roundabout way of dealing with things.
That said, Harry freaking battled Santa Claus and took control of the Wild Hunt. MURPHY ON A MOTORCYCLE TAKING PLACE IN THE WILD HUNT.
Every piece of the book that I didn’t like no longer matters because THAT HAPPENED.
Also, saw Looper last night. I’ve been following the film pretty closely, so I knew something of what I should expect, but it was obvious that the people next to me did not. When the credits started rolling, they were like, “Well, not recommending that to anyone ever!” Meanwhile, two seats away, I’m grinning because seriously, what a neat film. It bends your brain a little and I called a lot of the major things, but it kept me on my toes and you really, really can’t go wrong with Emily Blunt OR Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
I need to kick this headache and get to writing because this cracky story is not going to write itself. And then I get to write a story with Tony Stark as the protagonist, which will be a first for me!
