Finished “Oil!” by Upton Sinclair and “Galápagos” by Vonnegut not too long ago. I’m almost done with “The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair currently.

“Pilgrim at Tinker Creek” by Annie Dillard. She’s so awesome. “The Shining” by King was rather riviting. (I can read, I just can’t spell…)

I didn’t like wicked, started out well but (no spoiler don’t worry) thought it leveled out anticlimactically.

Loved Anne Rice…but now she writes only Christian stuff…which is good for her I guess, but I do miss her Vampires novels!

Last book(s):

The Art Of War -Sun Tzu.
White Teeth - Zadie Smith (actually technically, still in the middle of it, and have been for about a year. Very busy at the moment)
Re-read The Outsiders - S.E. Hinton.
Re-reading Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy -Douglas Adams (plus the other 3 books in the series. I read it about 12 years ago, so refreshing my memory of it/them.)

Vampire books though, there was a series of I read back when I was a teen. They might have been done by Christopher Pike, but I’m honestly not sure, and I can’t remember the name.

Though, I remember one vampire book with this little one named Vlaad.

Would you believe all those I listed, as a child/teen, I read that ammount in about 3 days? Yeah, I didn’t come out of the library much. LOL.

i’m 13. i love reading. its like a great escape when i just need to stop thinking about stuff too much. the last interesting book i read was i am the cheese by robert cormier.
dont judge it by its name, its actually a very interesting book. it is also kind of long and depressing (for some reason i seem to always attract depressing books)

Fight Club- Chuck Palahniuk
yeah, like the movie. lol. but this is the book it was based off of. its a bit different..so good. so so so good.

Shantaram- Gregory David Roberts
Probably some of the most amazing, beautiful, and extraordinary 933 pages i’ve ever read..and its all true!
The author was born in melbourne australia. “scentenced to nineteen years in prison for a series of amred robberies, he escaped and spent ten of his fugitive years in Bombat–where he established a free medical clinic for slum-dwellers,, and worked as a counterfeiter, smuggler, gunrunner, and street soldier for a branch of the Bombay mafia…” its really good. so many insights into life as well. i loved it.

My Name Is Will - Jess Winfield

21: Bringing Down the House- Ben Mezrich

Happy Reading!

I go to books-a-million atleast…3 times a week? and i usually have 2 or more books. I finish them before the nights over. Lets just say my favorite authors are Stephenie Meyer, Cassandra Clare, Lisa Mccman, Amanda Marrone, Danielle Steel, Alyson Noel, and Laura Myracle. I mostly reccomend Alyson Noels book ‘Evermore’ and the series of Cassandra Calre- City of Bones (1), City of Ashes (2), and City of Glass (3). They are all amazing.(: and i’m freakin’ 13…
