My Lucky Life In and Out of Show Business by Dick Van Dyke
Did I mention that I’m about to read a book with my mom?
We are going to read Dick Van Dyke’s book: My Lucky Life In and Out of Show Business.
I’m honestly kind of nervous. My mom and I haven’t been good at doing anything together since she got sick. (She’s not sick now, or at least, she doesn’t have cancer. It’s just that she changed a lot.)
So, if the zombie apocalypse happens…
…who wants to help me lock-down the big bookstore in the old opera house? Lots of space for sleeping and living, several stores nearby worth looting (wine shop nearby making zombieland bearable), endless entertainment from hundreds of books….
Update: Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
Just finished Under the Never Sky, the first book I decided to read from my 34 library books I checked out.
Granted I read about 50 pages of Daughter of Smoke & Bone first before I found out that Maria and I could read that one together and she suggested I read this one first since she had finished it recently and was on the final book of it’s trilogy. (Good suggestion Mar like holy hell I loved this book.)
Also I basically started this book, got 10 chapters in, and had to stop because it was too dark even for me to read. Then started again at first light of course.
Not even sure what I was trying to say with this post, except that I went to the library yesterday for the first time in years and I haven’t done much besides read and talk about books since.
Time for book 2: Through the Ever Night!
The Tenth Power by Kate Constable
I just read a 321 page book in 5 hours. I don’t even understand how that happened. Like when I finally closed the book I literally felt shocked.
(I also just noticed that the number 321 looks made up because of it being in sequence like that.)
Book Buying
So I went to Half-Priced Books with $40 thinking I’d get a few books since there was a 15% off sale, then maybe go to the Candy Shop and get some gummi bears for the giant bottle of vodka I have.
Two and a half hours later I leave the bookstore with 90 cents and two stacks of books I can’t even carry home on my own.
Now I have 4 stacks of books I really really really want to read…
Update: The Tenth Power (The Chanters of Tremaris, book 3) by Kate Constable
He found the book on amazon and ordered it and I’ll have it in a week or two.
omg *sob* I’ll have it and I’ll probably read it in one day…
AND SHE BETTER HAVE LEARNED HOW TO END A BOOK BECAUSE I SWEAR I WILL GO TO AUSTRALIA AND PUNCH HER IN THE FACE!!!!!!
*super excited happy dancing*
Update: The Chanters of Tremaris Trilogy
(re: having finished the first two books i have no copy of the third to read)
Robert: Is there something else you could read to get your mind off of it?
Me: [super deep demon voice] NNNNOOOOOOOOOOO
The Chanters of Tremaris Trilogy
I’m seriously about to stab someone right now…
I bought these two books (part of a series I’d never read and they just looked interesting) from Recycled Books last Thursday, because I had a massive credit account and needed new books to read.
Well I finished them.
FUCKING ASDFGHJKLFGHA;LSDFGHJK;LKJFYI
*sob*
That is not how you fucking end a book KATE CONSTABLE you fucking Australian BITCH I’m going to come to your house and punch you in the fucking face!!!!!!!!!!!!
I seriously have no words… At first I was actually forming coherent sentences, but now my ranting has deteriorated into meaningless irritated sounds punctuated by punches that Robert is bad at dodging…
I googled the FUCKING BITCH who wrote the books and it turns out it’s a trilogy (The Singer of All Songs, The Waterless Sea, and The Tenth Power), which is lucky for her because I already told Robert, there better be another fucking book or I’m going to beat her up and then lock her in a room and force her to write another one with a DECENT FUCKING ENDING!
But now the problem is: HOW THE HELL DO I GET THE THIRD BOOK!?!?!?!?
I bought all the ones Recycled Books had, that’s why I had two of them. And there’s no way I could afford to order a new one online or something… And Barnes & Noble is so out of my price range that I don’t even bother to go in there anymore because it’s just depressing…
FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK GOD DAMMIT I HATE MY LIFE SO MUCH RIGHT NOW AND I NEED THAT FUCKING BOOK NNOOOOWWWWWW
