That's a good point, Debet.
I am getting rid of several Gaiman books. Like most of us, I'm keeping Sandman and Good Omens so far. I also really loved Neverwhere and am inclined to hang onto it for now. I just culled a few others just last week, but I'm thinking now I'll go back and take out a couple more. Suddenly glad neither of my kids has gotten into The Graveyard Book yet.
Haven't read the article itself but I read a synopsis of sorts on the Rolling Stone website that was nearly enough to make me physically ill, so I think I probably know as much as I can handle.
I'm also selfishly glad that my Good Omens hyperfixation has waned a lot since S2 came out, though I do still want to see S3, whenever it airs and whatever it turns out to be. Do we know if it's been entirely rewritten by someone else, or are they still using some of what Gaiman wrote?
That's a good point, Debet.
Seconded. I pulled a few of the books to give to the library. Keeping the others for now, I guess.
Oh, dear. That's rough, sj
He’s a celebrity to her. He’s one of the first authors whose names she knew because he was in an episode of “Arthur”.
Kate, I know he was not involved in the filming at all but I don't know about the rewriting. At least, that's what I remember. And I also want to see season 3, but not as rabidly as season 1 had me.
Random thing I will miss as book-centered groups migrate off of FB: I came across a tea-centric post in the Parasol Protectorate Group and almost commented on the felicity of the pictured teacup featuring a magpie but remembered in time that that's KJ Charles. I just don't think I'm going to get that kind of juxtaposition with separate discords or blogs or whatever, assuming I manage to remember to visit them frequently which is not at all guaranteed.
Dang, sj. That's not going to be fun to navigate.
And I also want to see season 3, but not as rabidly as season 1 had me.
I feel about Good Omens (TV) the way I do about Buffy -- Joss Whedon is a garbage human being and abusive piece of shit, but BTVS is not solely Joss. It's so much more than him, and I won't let Joss ruin how much the show means to me. Same with Good Omens.
Oh, sj. That’s going to be hard.
I explained the JK Rowlings thing to her easy enough, and she totally got it. But this one, ick. She’s only 9.
Yeah. Give yourself some time to work out what is enough of an explanation. And to have your own feelings about it.
