Reading Fail

[elphabachan]

So I think it's pretty clear that I kind of failed at that 50 Books This Year thing I had considered trying again. I think the problem was that 1) I don't have NEARLY as much free time on my hands as I did the first time I did it. Second, I didn't pick books that completely engrossed me, and therefore they lagged, and lagged, and laaaagged. No one'

Drawing blood, and Summer of nights are two of my alltime favourite books =)

I LOVED DRAWING BLOOD!!!!! I want to be the next Poppy Z Brite! And I really like Dan Simmons too, so I'm waaaay excited for that one.

it has a sequel, Summer of nights i mean. =) called A winter haunting. http://www.amazon.com/Winter-Haunting-Dan-Simmons/dp/0380817160

And if you have not red Exquisite corpse, you should! Or Wormwood! I'm not the biggest fan of Lost Souls, but it is still a really good first read.

Ooooh, good tip!!!!! That will go on my list! And I really want to read EXQUISITE CORPSE, I just can't find it at ANY of the libraries I work at. Maybe a half price book store. I've heard mixed things about LOST SOULS, pretty much 'it's not as good as her others'. I've been tempted though, as it's usually pretty cheap at bookstores when I see it.
