It's funny specifically because it's so stupid. Normally, that's not the kind of funny I like, but Hotrod had me cracking up.

I've actually never seen Man in the Iron Mask but I just checked out the trailer and it looks really good. Not sure how I missed it when it came out, but it definitely looked like something I'd enjoy, so thanks! I'll be watching it soon. If it's anywhere near as good as the other ones you names, I'll be a happy girl! <br /><br />And yeah, Taylor Swift is adorable. Nice to meet you too! Thanks for coming by to say hello.

I LOVED the descriptions, which were awe-inspiring. but I never felt like i really got to know the MC's. I'm definitely in the minority though, as it seems most people adored that book. <br /><br />For me, I thought Daughter of Smoke and Bone was way better than night circus. I just love Laini Taylor's writing. Amazing prose!!
