Ladies and Gentlemen, My Mother....

From earlier this evening.

Mom: Is that...does that book say "Torchwood" on it?
Me: Maaaaybe.
Mom: It's a Torchwood book?
Me: Maaaaybe.
Mom: So it's "hardcover fanfiction"?
Me: Er, yeah, kinda.
Mom: And you paid for it?
Me: IT HAS A PRETTY COVER. SHUT UP.
Mom: So it's not any good then.
Me: ...........
Mom: Thought not.

That is all.

(It's actually not that bad).

Also - "Hardcover Fanfiction"? Yep. You guessed it. Another band name.

Not every book has to be a literary giant *speaks in defense of her beloved TW books*. That said, some of them are actually pretty bad :/

*cracks up* XD Someone else asked me pretty much the same thing when they saw it though. >_> I explained that it was... "official" hard cover fanfiction. Which in some circles is considered canon? IDEK. :P

...Which one are you reading, btw?

*cuddles her TW novels lovingly* They're so fun, though ;p Which one are you reading?

Which one are you reading?

I'm divided about the books, personally. I like some of them, but in a lot of others, the characters are OOC to the point of being unrealistic or unlikable (even Ianto!) and lots of the authors push Gwen/Jack like crazy.


Psst. This depends on your view on piracy. This site has free downloadable TW ebooks. http://www.freebookspot.me/ My suggestion is you look through them and then buy the ones you like best. That way you're still supporting BBC and the writers, but don't end up with a Gwacky book you hate.

I've read Undertaker's Gift and Bay Of The Dead so far. I thought they were both pretty good. :)

Anyone who owns all or a fair amount of the TW novels might be interested to know there's a TW bookclub comm. Sorry there's no link: I forgot the name of it! *facepalm*
