It's been a while...felt an impulse last night after discussing Human Target with [personal profile] malnpudl and did four (all shareable if anyone wants one though my icons are always on the basic side):









I'm still feeling the tie-in to The Sentinel. Partly because of the overlap of location and actors, but the three main people do match well with Jim, Blair and Simon in an AU, future versions kind of way. The gruff affection Simon showed Blair is snarkier between Winston and Guerrero, but still recognisable and Burgi and Valley share an admirable willingness to strip off at the slightest excuse and perform very similar stunts, er, acts of daring.

I've just come off rereading J D Robb's 'In Death' series for the nth time and the library supplied the new one, 'Fantasy in Death'.

I was two chapters in when I turned to David and said that to me it felt off. Wrong. Just out of curiosity, I looked it up on Amazon and found I wasn't alone in suspecting a ghost writer.

It just doesn't TASTE the same. There's an endless, not funny at all, conversation between Peabody and Dallas about a penis and a 'ginny' (gag me now) that's wildly OOC and lines that just don't ring true, way too purple.

Eve looking at Roarke:

'She glanced back once to see him at that glass wall, hands in his pockets, and that sorrow that perhaps only she could see, still shadowing his face.'

I wouldn't have the comma after 'see' myself, but that's just NOT an Eve thought, it isn't.
