Sai Kick

Wow, silly projects.

So I recently found out the English ISP proposals were due this week, and so I decided to start finding books yesterday at 9pm. Luckily, something with a possibly workable theme came up so I wrote them down and snagged from the library today snazzy copies of Hunting Fear by Kay Hooper and Visions in Death by J.D. Robb. Reading the first chapters of both makes me more confident that they're both bearable books to read.

From what I can tell, Visions In Death is the rebel-with-no-real-cause-protagonist type book. I've named the protagonist, Lieutenant Eve, the Testostogen Lady, whom is the stereotypical: "Grrr me no like green dress hate being public with it want kill criminals now." Hunting Fear on the other hand is the intense gruesome crime story, with things like: "Her eye sockets pierced into my head, and from their pitch black centres a gharlish shadow dripped slowly and thickly down her face."

Also I was flipping to some random page near the end of Visions in Death to see how many pages it had, unaware it had a few pages at the end reserved for a preview of the next installment in the series. So the first thing I see on page 364 is:

"You and Mr. Speegal had a relationship. An intimate relationship."
"We fucked like rabbits all summer."


I demand the same calibre of writing in the real parts of the book.

Sooooo we'll see how they turn out.
