Leviathan
So for NaNo,...

So for NaNo, I'm writing a steampunk thing (I'VE FINALLY CHOSEN A PLOT!) and since I haven't ever really read/written any steampunk before (plus, I needed an English book), I decided to check out Leviathan.

Leviathan is the first in a trilogy (?) by Scott Westerfeld. He who wrote the Uglies series and So Yesterday (which I haven't read) and a few other things. I'm not very far (pg. hundred-something) but so far, Deryn has been taken on board the Leviathan ship, and Alek is... somewhere.

Has anybuggy here read it?

Something that annoyed me a little... on the cover of Goliath, you have the two of them. In the artist's drawings, Deryn's face is a lot pointier. Something that annoyed me a little bit.

And it's Alek on the cover of Leviathan, Deryn on Behemoth, correct?

Love, love, love, love LOVE LEVIATHAN! Even with all the romancey mush that I am not usually so good with, it just makes it THAT MUCH better!

I think I read a bit of Leviathan for homework last year... it was interesting, but really, really slow going.

Ohhhhhhhhhh, THAT Leviathan. i thought you were talking about Hobbes XD Well, i've never read the Westerfield one.
