The Strand

I went to the Strand when I was in New York. Twas the most amazing bookstore I've ever been too! There were four floors; 1. Basement 2. Books 3. Children & Young Adult 4. Rare Books. The people there were so lovely. Everybody was nice. I asked one of the workers and they gave me these wonderful recommendations:

1. Childrens Book
2. Night Circus

Les Livres!

So it's the time for me to decide what book I will pick to read for school. I looked through my list hopelessly this morning; I was looking for the perfect book. Being that I have to right three small essays about the protagonist I knew I had to pick wisely.

My choices (the books I want to read):

The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (started, never finished)
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time (I absolutely adore this book!)
Incredibly Loud & Extremely Close by Jonathan Foer
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

I decided that I was going to read both the Elegance of the Hedgehog and Incredibly Loud & Extremely Close. I bought all the books anyway... haha.

I'm required to read of Mice and Men  and I haven't really started yet. Even though it's only 106 pages. I finished Brisingr and Inhertance!!! They were amazing. I really wish that Nasuada and Murtagh had gotten together. Why such a sad ending!!!!

Treasures

A few years ago when I went to my local library I found these old National Geographic magazines. The library was giving them away, I don't know why but I seized the chance to get my piece of history. I really enjoy looking through these, the adds are amazing and hilarious now just because of how far we've advanced in the last 40 years.

FAT books

My goal for this summer is to conquer Inheritance by Christopher Poalini. I started this series a while back and finished the first three books but now I'm having difficulty starting the fourth book.  I don't have reading phobias like most people:
1. I am not afraid of a big
2. I love reading
I'm really looking forward to reading it, but somehow I can't bring myself to. Maybe because there's been so much time in between Brisingr and the newly released Inheritance.

Divergent #2

Yesterday I went to Barnes & Noble and bought this book, and a present for my friend.  I lent it to my other friend because if I give it to her now she can return it before the school year runs out.
