    <about><![CDATA[I used to read mainly the &quot;boys' stuff&quot;, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, but nowadays I try  not to restrict myself to them (not that those books are shallow in any way). <br/><br/>Good books attract my attention regardless of their genre. But the genre I DON'T touch is &quot;chick-lit&quot;.<br/>]]></about>

          <body><![CDATA[The ongoing story of Harry Dresden does not get better in the ninth book. The consistencies in the mechanics and the competence of characters get very iffy here. <br/><br/>But well, it's the world which revolves around Harry.

          <body><![CDATA[Light entertainment. Thanks, Hazel. Those are the words I was looking for ;)<br/>The Dresden Files is becoming the opposite of that Jonathon Strange And Mister Norrell book. One uses throw-away street language, and the other purple proses with VERY much about nothing.<br/>Both were about equal terrible. <br/>Hope you enjoyed them any how :)]]></body>
