Right now I am in a bit of a predicament... tomorrow all four of my library books are due... the four that I have yet to read. I'm not sure what happened really. Usually I am a dedicated reader but these past few weeks since school started has been something else... something so "else" it has kept me from my usual four books every two weeks goal that has become more of a ritual since I finally got a library card. You would think that someone who reads so much would have a library card but for the longest time I was against having one. I have no idea why I was against it... there really isn't any rational reasoning behind it but this summer I took the plunge and requested my very own library card... but recently I have read less than ever before... It doesn't make sense! I am the kid whose mother walks in and yells something along the lines of "will you stop reading for two seconds and go get some sun" (I am very pale and probably don't get enough sun)
I have read the first page of all the books though. One was soooo ridiculous I had to put it down and make a note of the author so I would not be tricked my a catchy title again. One of the other books was interesting looking but the first chapter was a family tree... and didn't have enough to grab the attention of this superficial book lover. The other two I plan on reading all the way though. One is called Ash and I guess I have a soft spot for story telling. I'm already half way through it. The other is: I am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I want to be Your Class President... All Ive read of it is the first few pages but... it got my attention.
"can i leave these here and lets not get food on them"
ReplyDeleteThe seriousness in which you asked them that made me want to burst out laughing.
you've been a bit busy, i can defend you on that point, but nooo book finished like at all?
ReplyDeletehere are some books you should totally read, cirque du freak, the stravaganza series, the thief (by megan whalen turner), the queen of attolia (same author), the king of attolia (same), and Dealing with Dragons by Wrede and the authors. Oh and the Cherub series by Muchamore.
