i am waiting for the one moment that changes everything.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green John Green + a Hanklerfish
FINALLY going to read this. I’ve been putting it off. Who cares if I’m in the middle of four other books?
What I’m currently reading. Random, I know.
Finally reading. I think I’ve put it off for so long because I have a feeling this will be a book that will change me.
I just started reading this book and I almost stopped at the introduction. McManus points out in the first few pages some things that have been weighing on me - things I haven’t wanted to acknowledge. But I didn’t stop reading and am looking forward to diving further into Soul Cravings. When I was reading Blue Like Jazz I would write about it from time to time. I’m going to try to do that with this book as well (and hopefully write more than I did before.)
Have any of you read this? Did you like it?
One of the biggest things I’m looking forward to after graduation…
is reading all these books I have stacked on my dresser. I love reading for fun and taking 8 classes has made it pretty impossible to do any additional reading.
One of my classes has me reading three books that were on my “Read very soon” list so that’s a bonus. 7 more weeks. Hard to believe. I also have so much work to do still that I get little bouts of anxiety thinking about it. I can do this. 8 classes is incredibly hard with my full time job at TWLOHA but I know the reward will be worth it.
I’m thinking of rewarding my self with a trip to Ireland or London in September. We’ll see. Student loans will be coming and those little bouts of anxiety I have now will probably be full blown panic attacks.
Looking for Alaska
I have this bad habit of reading five books at once. As I mentioned, I finished Blue Like Jazz a few days ago and instead of finishing one of the other four books I’m reading, I opened up a new one.
Whitney says if I don’t like this book she doesn’t think we can be friends anymore. She even has a tattoo on her leg from this. I’ve heard a lot of wonderful things about this book (not only from Whitney) and I’m excited to get further into it.
I want to start a book club, or be a part of a book club, or something like that. We tried to on Bamboozle Roadshow but we never were able to get to the bookstore. I spend so much time reading text books that it’s nice to read something I want to for a change. I’ve always been a book worm. There’s just something so special about stories and words that you can’t find anywhere else in life.
