 Jonathan Strange and Mr. Monroe -- Susanna Clarke

I haven't read prose in a while, and this isn't that stunning. It has some interesting sparks though, her writing style tells it that makes it feel like a realistic fiction, despite it being fantasy. Which has two sides of the same, supposedly.
Everybody loves the universe. If you can look past the black holes, the rogue asteroids, the gym teachers, and that paper boy who keeps throwing your magazines into the bushes, it's a simple place most of us can call a happy home. It's a good thing. However, even the obviously non-sentient universe has a sense of irony. You see, the universe is going to end. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not 10120 years from now, but it will happen. One of the ways science predicts our inevitable demise is by pissing off God. But that's another story. Instead, another way that science predicts the universe will cease to function is through the "heat death of the universe" theory.

 I've heard that's a good book, Bjullie. :)

I'm reading, 'Just Henry' by the person who wrote Goodnight Mister Tom. [I forget her name, Michelle Magedion or something . . .]

 Just finished the seventh Harry Potter for british literature. Who knew you'd be reading that in college right XD Our professor goes way in-depth into the symbolism and hidden meanings in the story though (like how everything connects to alchemy). Totally blew my mind o__o

*waves the HP nerd flag* XD

 A Blade of Grass by Lewis DeSoto. It's beautiful and has inspired me to start writing regularly again.
From the final page
 
From here the sweetness will come. A Gift. But first she must plant the seeds.
