But the reason the blogs have been quite choppish the last couple of days is because I didn't want to mention a certain movie and have like all these nightmares and stuff.
I know.
It's stupid.
I realize that. So the film itself was Paranormal Activity. It's as scary as it's advertised. But I've gotten over it now. Hopefully.
So, over the course of the last few days I feel like I've read a decent amount of books. I read all four of the Sixth Sense books, I read Monsters of Men (which might I add is such an amazing book, the series itself needs more recognition for the amazing series that it actually is. I was skeptical at first about buying the first book, I'd never heard of the series before and at the time I liked to do some internet shopping on the book first. But I am so glad I picked up the series. It was amazing. Maybe I should do a Chaos Walking tribute blog? That sounds like a good idea. I'll do it on Thursday as tomorrow I'll probably be talking about Robin Hood, which I am going to see for my birthday which was admittedly a long time ago now...) and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Now that is book that leaves you thinking at the end. I loved the book. It's on the top list along with Catcher in the Rye for me. I can't wait to see the movie version (Of Perks of Being a Wallflower... getting a Catcher in the Rye as a film is like asking is Santa real...) when it comes out. Which is hopefully soon.
I'm also now reading Skulduggery Pleasant. I'm not quite sure what to make of it just yet, it's okay I guess, but I'm only like a quarter of a way through it, I'll probably read the series to see how it turns out. I'm like that...
Which probably leads me to explain my choice in literature.
As a bookworm, obviously I love to read all kinds of books. I tend to stray from Romance, myself, but I can stand it if it's like a subplot and isn't too significant. Like usual fantasy stories. I can deal with them...
So I'd like to think that I'm quite open minded when it comes to books. Like some people believe, well wherever I come from, that if you still read Teen Fiction you can't exactly call yourself a bookworm. I totally disagree with this comment. A bookworm by definition is someone who loves to read. It doesn't matter what genre it comes from, and where it's stereotypically put.
Getting back to the point. I generally love to read Science Fiction/ Fantasy, but I have this strange love to books with teenage adolescence and drug abuse, that kind of thing.
But I will read other stuff too...
I'm actually going to be sad enough to admit it but it's sorta my dream to start at one end of the Waterstones fiction area and read all the way around the shop. Fiction, Crime, Romance, Poetry, Plays, Classics, Fiction 9-12, Teen Fiction, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Graphic Novel.
But to do this, obviously I need to get money and to get money I need to get a job. Something which I'm still working on. I don't have one of those yet.
Anyway,
I have kinda lost track of time, so much so I can't go downstairs... I kinda have this thing where I can't go downstairs after a certain time because I think I'll wake everyone up. It's ridiculous really, but it's a state of mentality I guess, so now I have no band to tie my hair with. I always tie my hair back to go to bed. But I guess tonight's going to have to be an exception.
I just tried to go downstairs, but I kinda convinced myself not to do it... Yeah, I'm a wimp. I honestly didn't realize how late it had gotten...
Night!
