yay, more bookage

Thank God this has been another good week. Tuesday night, we went out to return some books to the library and to buy a few things. Wednesday was cool because my Java and OOAD books arrived. Since Tyler can't come home for lunch anymore, we didn't go to Subway but instead went to Taco Bell for taco salads for dinner. Yesterday was ok, we just didn't do much because Tyler had to work on his paper...

Randomness bookage meme

1. grab the nearest book. 2. open the book to page 123. 3. find the fifth sentence. 4. post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions. 5. don’t you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! just pick up whatever is closest. "Which left open the possibility that we would get married sometime, but it ...

Bookage

Okay so I went to Barnes & Nobles today and just browsed everything (along with looking up stuff about the PSAT/SAT) So I think I'm gonna *try* to go into hibernation for a few weeks just to read So far, in addition to my summer reading, [Changes in the Land, A Prayer for Owen Meany, Frankenstein, Mister Pip] I'd really like to read the core religious works of the world's main religions so that ...

The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well let's see. 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read. 2) Italicize those you intend to read. 3) Underline the books you LOVE. 4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've only read 6 and force books upon them ;-) 1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane ...

Bookage!

Evil Genius and Genius Squad were awesome, so completely awesome. I-LOVE-CADEL . SO MUCH . He's adorable and a total badass geek. And, because I have a fetish for villians, I think Prosper is hot . And I can't really say anything else, in case anyone wants to read these books. It's really easy to give stuff away because... the books are so complicated. Mm, Cadel. ~ LOVE ~ Can't wait until...

Bookage!

For you completists out there, Alien Entertainment has quite a few of the Virgin books - brand new overstock - for v. reasonable prices. The link goes to their regular storefront, but they're selling through their eBay store , also, if that has some advantage for you. These guys supply my monthly DW goodies, so I'll vouch for them as a reliable seller. The staff has a freakishly good memory, ...

April-May Bookage

25) Go Ask Alice - Anonymous (4/15/08) A sad, uplifting, beautifully tragic true story of a young woman's struggle with addiction. Highly rec'd it. This is one of my censorship challenge books. It was banned in several libraries in Michigan, Minnesota, Colorado, Texas, Georgia, Mississippi, Rhode Island, West Virginia, Massachusetts and Maine. Reasons for banning include drug references, sexual...

Ex Libris Pluribus

... do it right.   100.    Yes... One-Hundred Books, and not one of them a "gimme".  All of them have to require that I use my noodle.    I will immerse myself in a steaming jacuzzi of bookage and soak until some of the concepts penetrate into my melon.    Since accountants don't get sabbaticals, reading 100 "concentration required" books is gonna take more than one vacation, and I'll need to work ...

Time!!

..., 'Christmas Invasion' on telly "*giggles uncontrollably* THIS is potentially why I spend my weekends adventuring. So I don't end up being silly around the house. I feel either much NCIS or much curled up with bookage later... Fred Vargas and Cold Comfort Farm are calling me... (bows to Damehabonde) Oh, in other news, first week of new job went ok. It's a job. It'll pay the bills, AND I get ...

... they need to rest leg/foot injuries... I'm I the only one to see where things stopped making sense? O.o Back to bed rest for today, perhaps tomorrow I'll cash in my coins and use some of the coupons I get from borders for some nice bookage--Vampire Hunter D is almost done since it was fairly short... I wonder if my ankles will return to normal in the near future like my wrists seem to have.
