joseph, stay away from my poems… :)

trust me, you need to go back and read my poem and joseph’s response when you feel down – I laughed all Friday when I saw it:)

“different seasons” by Stephen king – apparently, this book was king’s effort to prove he wasn’t a horror writer – even though three of the four stories were horror, I thought – oh well, the positive was that I read the book – the negative was that it was entirely too long and I just didn’t enjoy it much – but I can now say I’ve read that – i’m not sure why people enjoy horror though…

“colin fischer” – cute book – not the best book of all time – but cute – colin is like all of us in many ways – we all feel disconnected from people at times – that we can’t read them – or we misread them – so I thought the introduction that pointed this fact out was good – despite the fact that I don’t think kids are this cruel any more (seriously, would an autistic kid get mercilessly picked on by teachers and students???)

“5th wave” – oh my, just when I thought high school romance books couldn’t get cheesier – classic twilight/hungers game combo – it’s the end of the world and we have a brave young girl who battles evil aliens – meanwhile, torn between her high school crush and a friendly alien – don’t worry though – the aliens get 7 billion of us, but true love wins in the end!!!

(yes, the last book was a high school BOB – sheesh people…)

happy reading – i’m sure you’re all out buying 5th wave now:)
