I don't have much else going on. Today was my long day at school and I am now very tired. I think I will go to bed and get to reading some of that above mentioned Harry Potter. Of these books, I would highly recommend The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, Middlsex, and The Life of Pi. They were all excellent books that doing this has made me want to reread them. I can't wait for summer, I am not taking any classes and plan to possible go back to Barnes and Noble as a second part time job. Oh the reading I will be able to do!!

Fun! You've read some of the ones I hadn't heard of! And you have a lot more on your shelf than I do too *book envy anyone? j/k ;o)
I'm re-reading 'The American' now, but online. Our 1877 copy has a fragile cover so it can stay right where it is for now... I don't think I actually have read all the way through this .. so, good or bad, I'm going to surprise myself ;o)
