Okay.
I need a break.
I'm sure someone has noticed I deactivated FB. I'll be back eventually, but right now it's too hard.

Books, Days 10-12
Yeah, I'm slacking...
Day 10 - A book you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving
Harry Potter. *gasp*. I know you weren't expecting that. Cara bought the first 4 in the series for me for Christmas one year and they collected dust for a long, long time before I decided to give them a chance. I don't know how I made it so long without them! What ( Read more... ) -
Books, 9
Day 09 - Best scene ever
This is hard to decide...I liked the interlude with Clay and his mom in the diner in 'Thirteen Reasons Why' (it really made Clay seem 'real') and I really identify with the relationship between Sidda and Vivi in 'Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood', although in a geberal sense, not a specific scene--coming from a ( Read more... ) -
Books, Day 8
Day 08 - Your favourite work in translation
"All Quiet on the Western Front". I believe it was originally written in German, and I read it for the first time during HIST 317--The Collapse of Europe, which focused primarily on the World Wars and Russian Revolution. I remember being so ticked to have to read a novel for a history class, but I found ( Read more... ) -

Books, Day 7 and Ye Olde Yearbooks.
Day 07 - A writer you don't like
Hmm, this is a little challenging. I have a hard time thinking of any writer that I don't like at least one or two books from. I'd have to say that the writer I like the least is Mark Twain, and there's no real reason why other than the obvious trauma I recieved in English III with Mrs. Aycock. lol. But even then, if ( Read more... ) -

From Robyn, I got a link to a writing style analyzing tool, and I copy/pasted several writing samples and got the same result, J.K. Rowling, every time. I'm giddy, I think that is a very high compliment. :) -
Books, Day 5 and a Harry Potter Interlude
Day 05 - A book you hate
I didn't even have to THINK about this one. Hands down, the most horrid, awful, atrocious, horrendous book of ALL TIME is 'Lord of the Flies' by William Golding. We were forced to read it in 8th grade and it was the worst experience ever. I like to read, I like to read many types of books, there may be some books that can't ( Read more... )
