Well I did consider it, but I didn't think the invitation to the awards ceremony was for two, so I figured she would use her mind control powers influence to make him read them.
Do I have faith in you to attempt to exorcise your male guilt by reading a shortlist of books you wouldn't otherwise read and which includes one book by a new writer which didn't make it onto the Orange Prize's own best new writer shortlist? Youse betcha, buddy!
I owned the Desai and had the Guo on my wishlist before the shortlist was even announced, so that's only four books I wouldn't otherwise read. :-p (And isn't that, you know, one of the points of awards?)
Having watched "Evolution of the Daleks" and "The Lazarus Experiment" (I'm coming off a TV glut right now - all the Heroes, Veronica Mars and Doctor Who I missed these last two weeks), I think that as with Torchwood, there ought to be a third option. This time it should be INDIFFERENT! I'm having a complete non-reaction to season 3, mainly because halfway into the season I still have no idea who Martha is or what she wants - beyond a romantic relationship with the Doctor.

Date: 2007-05-07 02:08 pm (UTC)And I'm not watching Heroes but hit your no by mistake, you could've had another option in there for not watching and reworded your question!
I also wanted "Zero" for your penultimate question. Take heed Syd.
