Nyan Cat

I don't think Nyan cat is funny, but I do think it's adorable. Now, Nyan cat with Mexican pointy boots? Now THAT'S hilarious!

Fabulous Friday - Bookworm Edition

I've been thinking a lot about books lately, and have decided to give myself a bit of a challenge.  I used to read a book each week in the past (ridiculous, but true - I'm a fast reader), but since I got my iPhone (the ultimate time-suck), I've neglected my reading habit.  What has happened is my to-read pile has grown...a great deal. This is my current to-read list, and I will do my best to update this blog after each completed read.

The challenge: read these books before purchasing ANY NEW ONES.

The current list:

The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky (this is first on my list because Hermione Granger will be starring in the film version, out later this year - I will also be forcing my 12 year old niece to read it)

Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter - Seth Grahame-Smith (film out this summer, and I met this author at school - he signed my copy of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, nice guy)

One Hundred Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez (many years on this list)

A Monster Calls - Patrick Ness (for a good cry, so I hear)

Poems, Ballads - Rudyard Kipling (found a lovely oriental edition of this at a swap meet and couldn't pass it up)

My Mother, She Killed Me, My Father He Ate me - Short stories collection edited by Kate Bernheimer (my last purchase at Borders before they went out of business)

On the Road (the original scroll) - Jack Kerouac (there are no paragraph beginnings or endings in this one, so I will save it for last due to its difficulty factor)


CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
