NaNo Update and a Book Report

First things first: Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you all ate more than is good for you, just like I did, and enjoyed it muchly. I also successfully avoided Black Friday by being on a plane most of the day. Booyah.

I finally hit my stride with my NaNo, The Time Ghost, and although it's shaping up a little differently than I intended, I did in fact reach 50k words last night. As you know, my goal for this year is a little more, but since I have the weekend in front of me still, I'm not worried. However, I am going to take a break once this month is over, just to give myself a pat on the back for picking up speed and making a personal best for myself.

So! Those of you who know me on my other LJ have seen my book reports before, but for those of you who haven't, what I do is give brief capsule reviews of the most recent books I've read (or in this case, am still reading) along with the corresponding cover art. I'm not sure what I'm trying to accomplish by doing this, but I like putting my opinion out there all the same.
