askye at 08:35pm on 15/08/2019 I'm not really fannish anymore. There aren't any tv shows I just have to watch and can't miss. Legends of Tomorrow is something I try to watch before the season is over. And American Ninja Warrior but that doesn't count. And I don't really talk about LoT because I wasn't.
Plus I've really isolated myself online and , I guess IRL so I haven't reached out.
And when I do find something I want to discuss or read fic about or whatever there isn't much out there. Right now I'm really into various Ilona Andrews books. I read all the Kate Daniels books and just finished The Edge novels.
The Edge ones I really want to read more stories about certain things. I didn't like them as well as Kate Daniels, it's a different type of series. I liked the world building but each book focuses on a different couple -- how they come together etc-- and while they are entertwined there isn't enough time spent. The last one, Steel's Edge was my least favorite in terms of the main couple but had a lot of cool stuff with the secondary characters. Part of the problem with the series is it's a bit repetitive in terms of concept. There's the women and then there's the men, and they meet and there is some will they/won't they (when they most obviously will) and doubt about how the other feels and then it's resolved and they get married. Oh and there is misunderstandings of some kind. There is other stuff in between but by the fourth book I was kinda just wishing to go back to revisit the others.
Plus I couldn't really get into Catherine or Richard. They were kind of ... boring. Maybe not boring but . predictable? I'm not sure but I mostly skipped over their relationship to get to the action.
I like the world of the Broken and I want to know more but there isn't much else. Except another series that as some of the characters guest starring so I have that on Interlibary Loan request at the library.
I wish I could get excited about a tv show again but I just.. I can't. I try but then I don't know. I didn't watch Game of Thrones in part I don't have HBO but then I did watch the first episode and I couldn't help comparing it to the series. I just want to find a show that just sparks something but so far nothing like that.
