I don't know if this can be classed in the "classic Hollywood homoeroticism" genre, but hot damn *I* sure like it anyhow:



In other semi-erotic news, I was talking to xterm the other day about Star Trek novels. I had a bunch of them when I was younger and going through my sci-fi phase (let's not even talk about my westerns phase, my Arthurian legend phase, and my historical bodice-ripper phase), and although we laughed a lot at how Enterprise: The First Adventure was basically a Mary-Sue story complete with 'sexy circus-girl who disses Kirk and has a FLYING HORSE' it reminded me that one of the books I read was about Kirk, Uhura and somebody else getting kidnapped by a ship full of weird aliens who had transparent skin and little neurotransmitters that looked like leeches and crawled around under the transparent skin, and they had different colours of fluid in their skin-sacs and the Enterprise crew got all attached to them once they got to know each other, and then I really *really* wanted to read that book again but could not remember the name of it for the life of me. If any of you recognize what the hell I'm talking about, please tell me the name of the book! I'm dying to read it again. Er, and hopefully find it used, ahahah.

As for the Everwood finale last night, stuff happened like I expected it to, and even if some of the things seemed a little rushed you couldn't blame them. All in all, it was more satisfying than most series finales (QaF, I'm lookin' at YOU. You too, Angel) and glockgal, silvrsolace and I pretty much cried from beginning to end. I'll miss you, Everwood, and all the time I spend thinking about how Ephram would make a great Timmy Drake and how much I love Miss Amy. Le sigh.

I am laughing hysterically because I actually have THREE POSSIBILITIES for the Star Trek novel you mentioned. Three. And I can't think of the exact title of two of them. Details? Remember anything about the plot?

Bwah! erilyn has informed me that it's "The Three-Minute Universe", and now I TOTALLY have to track it down, yo. I loved that book so much.

I have that one, somewhere. The other possibility, which I'm reading right now, is The Wounded Sky, which still goes down as one of my favorite sci fi novels.

Holy Christ. That's the one with that little crystal octopus genius chick, right? ahahahah!

Yes! Dude, now you have me wanting to make up a recs list of ST:tOS novels, because some of them were so good I read them every year. Strangers from the Sky is still one of my favorite books of all time, any genre.
