HEY ♥ So as most of you know already, I'm Annay, one of your moddydoddies. QNNG yosuke is the FAAAAAAAAAAR more adept one but between the two of us, we'll keep everyting in line. ANYWAY, to kind of ease ourselves into this whole thing, I think it'd be super to kind of get a feel for what we all like to read. So I've concocted a meme with this handy little form, which you can definitely fill out and...etc. etc. you get the point. All of the rules still apply so make sure you read them before doing anything nasty, otherwise we'll...get you. ...Despite the fact that we're not threatening at all.

!!!!!! HI MELIA! /ADDS

[ender]

Haha, hi! /adds back

[theory]

I've read Good Omens, which he co-wrote with Neil Gaiman--it was a really entertaining read. That's about it, though. I've been meaning to look more into him this summer. ♥

[wonder]

seconding Good Omens like the fist of Galactus

[ender]

Really? I'll have to check it out then, thanks for the rec!

[patty]

Mm, Stardust, Kite Runner, and Harry Potter! ♥ A friend of mine adores The Perks of being A wallflower. :) I might go check that out.

[ender]

You should! It's a fantastic book, and a pretty quick read. You seem pretty cool, would you mind if I friended you?

[patty]

I'll try and find it! :D All these recs are making me so excited. Also, of course, go ahead!

[baked]

I've been recommended Terry Pratchett all the time, too, but I haven't bothered aughh. Tell me if you find out!!

[ender]

Sure! I might post a review here when I finish :)

[paperback]

Good Omens is a great place to start with Pratchett, it's by both him and Gaiman but the writing's pretty clearly Pratchett's.

If you want to go right ahead into the Discworld books, I'd actually suggest first doing something more recent and then backtracking to the earlier stuff. Going Postal, maybe, it's a pretty good stand-alone.

[ender]

Perfect. I was most curious about Discworld, but I didn't quite know if starting at the beginning was the best idea. I'll check out Going Postal, thanks!

I hope you like it!
