Current Mood:


As if I need to add even MORE books to my collection. I wasn't sure about the 3 MacLean books, but I had a feeling I had just forgotten to add her titles to my book list.

Turns out I was mistaken. The author's name was just familiar, seeing how she has a highlander book out in stores right now which I see all the time. Hopefully, I'll have found another author that I like.

By the way-- after reading one of THE WORST books ever, I finally read a really good one. The worst-book-ever's storyline consisted of 1 dimensional characters lusting after each other every 2 pages. (I mean this 1,000 % too. That really seemed to be the plot of this book). After that great disappointment, I picked up another book which was boring me to tears.

Finally, I picked up "If You Deceive" by Kresley Cole.



It was so good! The heroine was a survivor not to be led on or disrespected, and the hero flawed without really being a "bad" guy. And get this... these characters GREW! They DEVELOPED and actually wound up falling IN LOVE with each other as opposed to IN LUST with each other. I thoroughly enjoyed it and now it's on my keeper shelf. I even added it to the "Keeper Shelf" on my book blog. (By the way, I'm now thinking about starting a book review blog... which no one will read, but I still think I want to do it).

So, according to my Shelfari account this is how it stands... erhm, this is how it stands presently:

My TBR Pile: 141 books
I've read: 270 + books
Wish List: 106 107 books

I think I might need to find a hypnotherapist to stop this addiction. Is anyone else reading this just as hopeless as myself?

If not, please lie. I'm really not that picky.

In other news, here are two strange coincidences from 2 days ago:

- I had this dream about Juno, Alaska of all places. The next morning my mother tells me that Dad was talking to her the night before about an old co-worker friend of his that's living in Juno, Alaska.

- Last week I was at Garden Ridge. I never go there - the last time I was there was last November - but I wanted to look at the Halloween decorations.

On one of the Christmas aisles I felt a little pain in my head. It only happened on this one particular aisle, which I thought strange. I figured it was just being sensitive to a high EMF field in that area. (I say this because at the mall, whenever I walk by the huge elevator there, I get dizzy). Still, I thought that strange - a high emf field in that one spot - because the ceilings there are so high and I didn't think there were any electrical outlets on that aisle.

But then what did I find out 2 days ago but that this particular Garden Ridge store BURNED DOWN. It was a 3-alarm fire.



I just find this all very strange. Maybe I'm like one of those bomb sniffing dogs.

In all seriousness though, I feel for those people that were employed there. They say the store is beyond saving.
