Next on my List by Jill....something. I keep forgetting her last name. =) but it was a good book. not really good, but it was just ok. if you've read 10 things to do before I die, this book is kinda like it except better.

3 facts in my life.

everything happens for a reason.

everything always works out fine in the end.

I have few friends, but they're truly the most unbelievably incredible people I could've ever asked for. I don't deserve them. they're the best.

Next by Michael Crichton.

Another science-filled one, talking about the ownership of a person's DNA, lawsuits, checking someone's DNA whether they have a predominant 'leadership' or 'thrall' gene.
It wasn't that great, compared to the others Crichton books I read.

moogle.

The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.
I finally stopped procrastinating, picked up this book, and like finished it in a day. Haha. And it was like on New Years Eve too. I'm the type of person that has to find a negative in every book. But I loved the book, the middle was somewhat boring, but that's okay. :]

But I'm mad. Cause some people spoiled A Thousand Splendid Suns for me. I shall pretend I never heard what they said.

i miss blogring.

Southland by Nina Revoyr. Actually, I still haven't finished it yet. >< But I definitely intend to. It's a very powerful novel. I recommend it.

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown.
I attempted to read this in sixth grade, around the same time it came out ( I think ), but I just found it so boring. And I was just like forget it. But I decided to read it again this year because it's just one of those books you finish the second time you pick up. ( In that case, Little Women must be like the book I will finish the 10th time I'm going to pick it up. ) ANYWAY. What was I saying? It's a good book. :] But I heard that his other books were so similar that it was just like whatever, you can't read them because it's so predictable.

i miss blogring.

The Girl in the Glass by Jeffrey Ford
I had to read this for ENG 214 and ended up really liking it. I'd say it's one of my favorite books.

Emerson's Self Reliance and Other Essays

oh wow, although it is very repetitive and contradictory at times, it has a lot of interesting points.
