Firefly

I got the first disc of the series Firefly from Netflix on the recommendation of other Star Trek fans. I didn't make it through the whole first episode. It wasn't horrible. It just didn't get my attention at all. I wonder if I just needed to watch it longer or what. I'm all for spending time watching good TV, but I felt like I was wasting my time, so I took it out and am sending it back. I'm disappointed because I thought I was about to get involved in something good and absorbing. And Netflix thought it would be 4.5 stars for me based on other things I like. Out of my approximately 5 readers, is anyone familiar with Firefly and can provide some feedback?

How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot

On the recommendation of LeisureGirl, and also because Leah sometimes enjoys young adult fiction, and because when I was a young adult I enjoyed it, so why did I quit, I read How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot. I really enjoyed it! I felt like it might be a little predictable, but then it didn't all go down how I predicted, so I was glad for that, even. It was a fun and cute read, and I'll definitely read more of her YA stuff.

I've read Boy Meets Girl and The Boy Next Door, both of which I really enjoyed. I find that it's harder to get into that format, although I do find it hilarious and fun in the end. I'm also planning to read Queen of Babble based on LeisureGirl's recommendation, too, but it was checked out of my library already, so I'll check next time.

I recommend!
