What’s it going to be then, eh?
June 28 can’t come soon enough. It’s the day the new book for Read Hard! will be announced which is always a reason to celebrate. One of the two days every month when buying a new new (as opposed to thrifted/second hand) book is justifiable. Not that all the other days are spared really, because earlier this week, I went home lugging around four newly thrifted books. The only difference is that impulsive book shopping always makes me feel a little guilty afterwards while buying for a book club doesn’t. :P
Anyway, I always forget to bring home my copy of Nabokov’s Lolita from its place in my cubicle shelf. I have been meaning to read it but honestly, it is a difficult book to finish. It’s too beautiful which can also mean, too staggering and filled with numerous big words. It’s a book for intelligent people. Reading it has become a tedious exercise that requires much brain processing. I’ll get around to it but right now, I just want to enjoy light reading.
New favorite book! My copy of A Clockwork Orange is beautiful. My boyfriend got it for me! WEEEE.
Also read two volumes of The Sandman Library because I bought them, they’re nice and they must be read.
