we, like sheep

A meme:

Ask me three questions. Ask me anything you want. Then post these instructions in your own journal, editing for style if necessary.

I am thinking about goblins, Morrowind, lentils, and algebraic topology vs. differential geometry, and not thinking about algebra.

1. Where do you garner book recs (lj aside)?

2. If you didn't read lj, to what use would you put that time?

3. To break the implicit theme, what color(s) are your curtains / blinds? (Pick a room.)

1. For books that aren't science fiction, my mother. For science fiction, though I've borrowed particular books from particular friends, my private book-choosing process in the library or a large bookstore is probably more influential. I read largely on the "Everything by X" principle; if I haven't read a book by someone before, title and not having the words "epic" or "cycle" on the cover are probably most influential, aside from the subtleties of plot description.

2. E-mail, I suspect.

3. I have the very ordinary white blinds that came with the apartment. At the moment, my highest decorating priority is to substitute more bookcases for eleven milk crates.
