Since my last post about books I've been reading like a fiend. Seriously.
I finished Brave New World, The Road, Never Let Me Go, The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay. I highly recommend them all, minus Never Let Me Go, which was good, but not great. I love the feeling of being engrossed in a book. So. Amazing.
Speaking of amazing, if you haven't read The Road or The Hunger Games trilogy do so now. Yes that's an order. You'll thank me later.
Anywho, I have class to get to, bleh. But, next up is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Hopefully it will live up to it's reputation.

dollar tree reading
emily and i were at the dollar tree yesterday (which is, by the way, totally underrated) and i was perusing their book section and came across some of the most hilariously/absurd book titles. I thought i might share a few of them with you....
Savage Trust
The Cobra and the Concubine
The Barbarian ( the cover of this one was a fabio-esque looking guy riding a white stallion through the country side)
Unearthed-Zap! and Tess was gone
Desperate Tigress
Cornered Tigress (i think these were part of a series)
and my very favorite........Truly, Madly, Viking
i'm including the synopsis of Truly, Madly, Viking cause, well you'll see:
His boat off-course, distracted by a randy she-whale whose infatuation had somehow thrust him into the twenty-first century, Jorund Ericsson had cause to question his surroundings. And though the befuddled Viking thought he'd found heaven when he caught sight of the comely wench with the man-hair and the kiss-some lips, the lovely doctor simply thought him crazy. And Jorund realized the only thing that had driven him to the edge was her enticing figure.
He skyrocketed from the water and into Maggie's life: all sinewy muscles in a flawlessly proportioned body, a swath of long blond hair swept back from his brow. His claim to be a Viking from the tenth century made her smile. But it wasnt laughter that caused her stomach to flutter when the Hercules look-alike claimed her lips. And soon he had her believing his story, though questioning her own sanity. Then the psychologist realized there was another possibility: Neither of them was truly mad of they were truly, madly in love.
classic literature right?
