lishesquexI just finished reading Affinity. It took me about two months to get past the first 50 pages, and then I read all the rest of it in a few hours. It was a Sarah Waters book through and through, full of Victorian intrigue and twisty plots and deception. The last part of the book was pretty bleak, but not as depressing as I'd come to expect. It's left me a little blah though.
One funny thing about the book, though, was that it reminded me of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
selina_, because of the characters named "Selina" and "Ruth". Heh. :)
This morning I had a really, really weird, vivid dream in which I was pregnant and gave birth to set of twins - a girl and a boy. Everyone had been killed in some sort of massacre and I had to give birth by myself, except four octopuses helped by grabbing my wrists and ankles by their tentacles as I was suspended over a deep pit. Yeah, totally o.O right? Lol. And when the baby came, I had to make sure I caught it so it didn't fall into the pit. And then I didn't know how to tie off the umbilical cords, so I just cut it and left it. I remember being really happy that I had given birth to healthy babies. I spent ages trying to figure out what to name the twins. As I was waking up, I remember being alarmed by the fact that I hadn't nursed them yet.
Yeah. No more sushi before bed.
