Eskimojuks..

Og jeg som faktisk har trodd på at eskimoene har 40 ord eller noe sån for snø.. Ble nesten litt skuffet, nå:

"The great eskimo vocabulay hoax"

2020 - året det var så mye tid til å lese

 Og det er vel alt jeg har å si om året. I alle fall her. Men for meg betydde hjemmekontor og sosial distansering en aldri så liten renessanse for lesing. Ettersom jeg nå også skriver selv, blir det ekstra interessant å skrive en liten analyse av og det jeg har lest.  Jeg har lest 39 bøker til nå i år, og har nok ikke mulighet til å skrive om alle - men ettersom jeg elsker lister vil jeg kåre de 10 beste. De kommer nok til å komme i lest rekkefølge, men det er uten tvil 10 av de 39 jeg har lest som kan anbefales...  10. Harald Rosenløw Eeg: Gyldig fravær En undersøkende, filosofiskreligøs bok om hva folk gjør når katastrofer inntreffer skrevet for ungdom. Vi har fem sentrale karakterer, alle blir utsatt for krise med t-banestans og de handler og velger meget forskjellig.  Jeg lot meg fascinere av Ida, Sherpa og Anjo. Den er godt fortalt og har en helt fantastisk vepsemetafor. Eller - den har mange fantastiske metaforer og symbolikk det er gøy å tolke. 9. Nicolai Houm...

30 Days of Game of Thrones - day 26

Day 26 ~ Your favourite Tyrion-moment Tyrion is also one of my top 3 favourites. There are simply not enough room in a meme to describe the genious that is Tyrion. When he makes fun of the Ser Alliser Thorne, when he confesses his crimes in the Vale, how he tells the story of Tysha are just a few of his great moments.  The one I've chosen for my favourite however is maybe the first time we see him up close in the book. When he meets Jon Snow for the first time he tells him to never forget what or who he is. It's an incredibly wise statement and it's the statement that has made me stick with Tyrion throughout the books. I must admit, though that I am really worried about Tyrion at the moment. Her seems to be turning a much, much darker shade of gray of late. Tyrion in A Game of Thrones and A Clash of Kings is just brilliant. But when no one recognizes that, he takes a dark turn that I don't particularly like.

30 days og Torchwood - Day 30

Day 30: Why You Love Torchwood Ok - know I've been a little bit behind on this. All because I'm on holiday at the moment. Went to Cardiff yesterday, and it was wonderful. Reminded me so much of why I love Torchwood! Torchwood is a rehash of a very used concept. It's been done plenty of times in various ways. However Torchwood definitely has something unique about it, and feels like something new all the same. It's weird and funny and quirky. The characters don't always act how you expect them to act, and sometimes they do silly or stupid things as well. It's unpredictable and surprising much of the time. I love the hub and the creatures who live there. I really liked the idea of Captain Jack having his own series and I really like how the two first seasons turned out. They go through so many weird cases and fascinating aspects of life! I love the team, and I most definitely love the characters. There is also the mix between domestic and sci-fi that I li...
