I’ve been meaning to get back into the whole “read a book” thing as I mentioned on the community boards the other day & I really think it was a good decision for me. I have kinda been pushing away from the internet a lot (hence the slow decline & death of this blog) and although my video games keep me entertained, there is nothing like a good book as they say

Just a few days ago, actually sometime last week, I just finished a book called Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs (how awesome is that name?). It really screamed creepy to me when I was looking at it on the shelf & it was at first. Up until about the middle of the book anyway. Then it just kinda went “teen drama” from there which really disappointed me. But the photos in the book are amazing & they really help to tell the story. I will be reading the second book when it comes out though ’cause this one just kinda dropped off in the middle of the action and I was like WHAT?! Must know the end of the story!!

I have picked up The Host again after having it sit on my shelf for… the gods know how many years. Not a big Steph Mayer fan, refuse to read Twilight, and the first chapter of this book the first time made me go OMFG THIS IS BORING AS ALL HELL!! But I am gonna try again. I have shelves & shelves of books I bought but never read and it’s about damn time I did!!

So there it is. If you don’t hear from me in the next few days, don’t call the cops, don’t send out the FBI. Just get me a cookie & some tea and let me finish the book in peace
