Now Reading 101

Julie and Julia

and

A Thousand Splendid Suns.

I still have that gift card, I'm just not sure what I want to use it on yet. These two books were around my house (gifts to my parents who don't read) so I figured I'd give them a shot.

Julie & Julia...idk...the tone seems different than the movie. I can't see Amy Adams reading any of this aloud as narrator for the film.

I've been reading John Sandford's prey books.. read one in the middle of his series LOL and now I'm reading the very first one.. "Rules of Prey" it's pretty good, I'm enjoying it!

I am currently on the second book in a trilogy of books called Midnighters by Scott Westerfeld. I've read the series a few years back and really liked it so I decided to reread it in between new series since I've been a bit busy I don't like to get sucked into a new series cause I don't stop reading until I've finished lmao.

Thinner by Richard Bachman (Stephen King)

Not bad. Not great. Just a book.

Somewhat similar to Doug there, I am reading Cell, by Stephen King. Not because I thought it was amazing or anything, but I'd finished The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest, and needed something to read.

It was lying around, and I realized I never had read it.

Due to being a terrible library patron, I'm currently in the middle of three books:


1. Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk - This is one I'm actually in the middle of reading. It's strange, but that's to be expected with Mr. Palahniuk. Every time I read one of his books, I wonder if I'm really enjoying myself or not... which is probably exactly what he wants.

2. Redwall by Brian Jacques - I started reading this one day when I was bored at the library over Spring Break, but I didn't take it out, because 1) I wasn't going to be able to return it, and 2) I was certain the library here at school would have it. Well, they didn't (because they're the worst library ever), so I had to put it on hold until I could get it in the mail.

3. Memory of Earth by Orson Scott Card - OSC may be a total asswipe, but he's a good storyteller, so I picked this up from the school library; unfortunately, I kept it too long and had to return it before I could finish. So like Redwall, I ordered it online and just got it in.


Can't wait to finish em all.

I read Redwall years ago. Its a part of a huge series and I've always wanted to read all of it but never have. Someday I might reread it and read the others as well.

I'm currently reading The Kane Chronicles: The Serpents Shadow. It is good and I like it but I want to finish it because I just got the Game of Thrones book from the library and really want to read that as well, though they are both from the library so I won't stop one to read the other.

The series is part of the reason I'm finally getting around to reading it. I read Pearls of Lutra and I think Mattameo a long time ago, so this time I'm just gonna start with the first and truck through best I can. I remember really enjoying them, and I enjoyed what I'd gotten through this time around.
