oanja | I should do that Christmas card post soon...

Saw Harry Potter today and thought Ron's shoulders were very marvellous. Can't really be bothered to say much more about it, except that I do not approve of these movies obviously shipping Harry/Hermione...

I ate a really questionable cheezy omelette for dinner and then my flatmate wanted to make us tea. Now I don't feel so stellar... =/

Then a meme I stole from sunsetmog. See if you can guess the name of the book and/or the author from the summary. (the summaries are from TV tropes)

Edited this to add the titles of the books nobody guessed.

1) The Abhorsen Trilogy: Extraordinarily Empowered Girls kill zombies with bells.

2) Across the Nightingale Floor: A Japanese teen must assassinate a warlord to prevent his girlfriend from marrying his adopted father.

3) All American Girl: Ordinary girl saves the president then falls in love with his son.

4) American Gods: A man is let out of prison and is hired as chauffeur and bodyguard to a weird man who's conducting a secret war against another bunch of other weird people. The story is occasionally interrupted for history lessons or stories that are almost completely unrelated.

5) Animal Farm: ~~Talking animals re-enact the history of the Soviet Union. Including parts that hadn't happened — yet.~~

9) Dune: Boy named after a mouse helps locals improve their drug-filled sandpit, despite unfriendly wildlife. The government disapproves. Also, Cinnamon lets you see into the future.

10) Ender's Game: ~~Laser tag is Serious Business, Real Time Strategy games even more so.~~

11) Generation Kill: ~~A reporter rides in a jeep with a severely dysfunctional family to chronicle their adventurous road-trip. Oh, and ambushes.~~

12) Good Omens: A baby is switched at birth, which causes great problems later on. Meanwhile, a cynic with a fondness for antique cars, a rare book dealer, a Granola Girl, a man who breaks things, one of the last witch-hunters in Britain and the witch-hunter's landlady attempt to prevent four rather sinister bikers from causing The End Of The World As We Know It.

13) His Dark Materials: ~~Some kids go through worlds, kill God accidentally and discover they don't need Him in first place. And there's loads and loads of talking animals! Technically speaking.~~

14) Keys to the Kingdom: Asthmatic 12 year old almost dies and is randomly selected to be the Lord of the Universe by part of a sentient legal document.

15) The Moon is a Harsh Mistress: Malcontents vent their frustration by throwing rocks at the people in charge.

16)Slaughterhouse Five: Young man fights in the Second World War, goes home, gets married, is abducted by aliens, goes home, dies. Not necessarily in that order.

17) Use of Weapons: An advanced alien civilization makes inaccurate predictions about the military prowess of an identity thief who turned his cousin into a chair.

18) The Wheel of Time series: Some farm kids discover that they are main characters, and that they have to stop Satan and his crones before one of them goes mad and destroys the world for them.
