New Moon Anyone?

I find myself becoming engrossed in the Twilight series. Looking forward to November 20th, 2009 when New Moon is released in theaters.

Coraline


Coraline

I finished one of my books today in record time, 90 min. I loved this book. It was so twisted and dark. It is very different from the movie but still enjoyable. I recommend this book and the movie in 3D, but do not encourage them for small children.


Two Thumbs up! ;)

Next on my list will be "Why We Suck", by Denis Leary. I need to finish that one by Friday to loan it to a friend.

BOOKS, BOOKS, BOOKS

I love reading books. It's the ultimate treat to read with candles burning and music playing in the background. I never really had time to read things that didn't have to do with my profession. When I get to read, I never really go for the "real books" first. I usually go for romance novels. :) However, I have purchased a lot of great books over the past few months and haven't gotten to them. This is going to change. I have decided to read a "real book" in between each romance novel. Also, I plan to read at least one book a week.

I'm a Dreamer... ;)

In answer to Essential E's question: Yes, I am a dreamer. I have wanted to read the Inkheart Trilogy by Cornelia Funk for a while now. I am intrigued that Ms Funke starts each chapter with a selection from another book that ties into what the coming chapter is about. Essential E's example is one of Shel Silverstein poems, which starts off the first book. I adore this poem!


If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in! Come in!
