That's strange, didn't move me emotionally all that much. Then again, especially with school books, I'm a very analytical reader.

This is just me, as I try to take care of books...If I had a 150 year old original copy of a book, I wouldn't read it, nor would I handle it that much, unless I knew it was strong enough. I'd keep it in a place where sunlight wouldn't damage it, not too damp, etc, and have a book binder check it out, especially the spine. Bookworms love the glue used. And now that I've given my not-asked-for-opinion (but get used to it ), I'll move on. I'm reading "Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder" by Joanne Fluke. I'm supposed to also be reading "Dirty Liar" by Brian James (still...) and my James Dean biography book. And a handful of others. But I'm actively reading the Joanne Fluke book.

Yellow pages, online searching. Or asking around.
So I finished "Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder". I don't know what the next one is, but I'll free it from my mother's clutches...

Hah, double post! Reading slackers, the lot of you. Okay, so I'm being a bad person and reading a series out of order....I"m currently reading "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown. But "Angels and Demons" is supposed to be its precursor, but no one in my house can find time to look for it...oh well.

*rolls eyes* I AM allowed to not read if I don't want to. I must've read over a thousand books in the last couple years, I mean, it was literally my life. (I have had a very boring life, can't you tell? Thankfully Theater is going to be my life for the next two and a half years. ^.^ YAY THEATER!
Umm... I checked out a couple books at the library, but I haven't actually opened them yet xD Let's see.... Sir Friday and Mirror, Mirror by Gregory Maguire. You know, the guy that wrote Wicked?
