nebuliaI can't sleep. I'm just wide awake, which is funny, considering how exhausted I felt all day.
Tonight I finished a book--A Most Begrudging Bride, by Deanne Gist (I think). Christian fiction, but it took place in colonial 1644 and the religioin didn't seemed forced at all for the most part, which always impresses me when it comes to Christian books. The romance was also very nice; there was a lot of unresolved sexual tension and it was very subtle but still hot. Really. I was impressed. It read very much as a historical fiction romance novel with a better organized plot and no smut, and I was pretty hooked the whole way through. I'd recommend it if you like that sort of stuff.
As a rule, I'm very skeptical of Christian fiction as it usually reads like 4 dollar romance novels without smut (but sometimes the smut in those kinds of romance novels is so bad you're glad there isn't any), or replace smut with religion, but no, this was actually something that could be qualified as decent literature.
I think I may try to sleep now, or at least lay down and close my eyes. But I'm so awake...how odd. I better not be tired in the morning, dammit.
nebulia out.
