Romance Novels at Night

That should be a new book title...

So I only got 1 hour of sleep last night because I stupidly started to read a romance novel at 12am... yeah, stayed up 4.5 hours with that one (but I finished it).

Sadly, the stupid book was about this angel who falls for a harpy (a match certainly NOT made in heaven). She in turn falls for him, and after they eventually sort out their differences (that takes a lot of fighting) they come to fall equally in love with each other. But, both their societies damn such a match, angels are not welcome among her harpy sisters because angels KILL harpies as their job. Harpies are not welcome in heaven, seeing as they are the spawn of Satan.

BUT they eventually learn to accept this fact too, and they decide their love means more than what anyone else in the world (heaven and hell included) would think of their love. He risks falling from heaven and having his wings torn off and she risks.... well I suppose just being shunned (it doesn't get much lower than coming from hell).

Now this... made me very angry. For my own personal reasons I was like SHUT UP YOU STUPID BOOK LIFE NEVER WORKS OUT LIKE THAT.... I found myself being very very bitter about the whole thing. It was a great book (well short story) but it kept me up for 15 minutes muttering and cursing life and the people in it (well not all of them, hehe).

Oh well! Time to read some not romantic novels that end depressingly so I can feel better about my life ^_^

I can't remember the last time I stayed up all night reading. I did that a lot when I was younger...
And totally agreed about depressing endings. -_-
