Yep I'm a sucker for unrequited love. Maybe I should have lived in the 1200's when they lived those sorts of things. Though even then I'm sure it was just stories and poetry. I like stories and poetry. Generally probably not considered a good thing. Escapism is like a drug, not quite heroin.

This weekend's escape? "Legend of the Seeker" They actually made a tv series based on the Sword of Truth book series. A bit cheesy and predictable but then so were the books. But a good story. And the person who gave me the first book in the series will always be special to me. A very interesting guy who made me feel both naive and protective at the same time. And if I had been single? Not someone I would probably marry but, it would have been something special.

Really? They made movie out the Wizards First Rule? And it wasn't a disaster? How many books did it cover, just the first? I'd like to know how they dealt with a couple things, oh like Richard's captivity at the hands of whatever they called the red leather chicks.

And he only gave you the book first because I wasn't around at the time to j/k ;P

I do remember some good conversations from those books though

I don't like seeing unrequited love in fiction, I have enough of it in my own life. :-/

How was the Legend of the Seeker abomination? (you can probably guess how I feel about it.) I read the whole series mostly out of trainwreckitis.
