Stuff I've read recently and events! (Recs)

So, finally got around to reading Young Avengers (issues #1-12), and bwahhh, so cute.  Yeah, mostly because Billy and Teddy are adorable and oh, boys and sweet and Billy is such a fanboy.  (I'm a witch, not a warlock.  It means 'oath-breaker.'  It is not a nice word.) But Cass and Kate rock too, and Eli's a good guy and...well, Tommy fought next to Wolverine and Logan said re: his fighting, "That's sick, I like it."  *snerk*  Vision seems pretty cool too.  Nice to see Captain America get a little comeuppance around Eli's grandfather.   I like their team dynamic as a whole.

I'm in the middle of grl2grl by Julie Anne Peters, a book of short stories about being teenage and lesbian.  It's pretty good so far, though occasionally vastly depressing.  

Ah, and I just read the second Mouse Guard book.  After growing up with Brian Jacques, I'm pretty comfortable with the premise (mice fighting things off with swords and fortresses) and the art is pretty awesome. 

( Real Life (more or less) )

ETA: OH YEAH.  SENATE PASSED THE DADT REPEAL, HOUSE ALREADY PASSED IT. FUCK YEAH!  Obama's signature and it is LAW.
