    Little cheater pic I made on the 12th because I forgot to do so on the 11th. The point is that I finished Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on the 11th. Two weeks later, I’ve finished the last two books, though I’ve not yet formed...

    I’m pretty sure it’s not secret to any of you that I am in a time of great upheaval right now. Things are just…rough. They’ll get better, but right now they just suck, and that’s how it is. So, you’d think IR...

    Image via Wikipedia Or, 734 pages of reading pleasure. I have to admit that I was somewhat daunted by the sheer size of this book. After all, I’ve only ever read one adult author who could hold my interest for 3/4 of a thousand pages. An...

    What, in your opinion, is the best book that you haven’t liked? Mind you, I don’t mean your most-hated book–oh, no. I mean the most accomplished, skilled, well-written, impressive book that you just simply didn’t like. Like, for movies–I ca...

    What was the most unusual (for you) book you ever read? Either because the book itself was completely from out in left field somewhere, or was a genre you never read, or was the only book available on a long flight… whatever? What (not counting sch...
