I've come to the startling conclusion that I'm not that interested in reading fanfic at the moment. I try but lose interested after a couple of paragraphs and return to whatever book I'm reading at the moment.

I think it's because I recently realised that for ages and ages all I was reading was fanfic. Now my brain has decided that This Is Not On and it wants more than just cute boys being cute together. I don't mind it, especially when my To Read pile has been threatening to drown me for about two years, I just find it odd that all of a sudden I've gone from all fanfic all of the time, to 'Damn, where's my book?' in almost the blink of an eye. It could also explain why I've been so ambivalent about LJ lately. When I couldn't get enough fic it was my absolute lifeline, but these days I'm more likely to be perusing the 813's at work than trawling around the intertubes for new fic.

Huh.

That's exactly how I feel at the moment. I used to read fanfics in tons, but now, I crawl in my bed in the evening and snuggle with a good book. Maybe it's because I started reading tie-in novels and it's basically like reading a fanfic in a book form.

But then, I have these waves: obsessed with TV shows - obsessed with fanfics - obsessed with books. And it goes in circles.

Yeah, I think I'm going through an obsessed with books phase at the moment. Not such a bad thing, really ;~)
