Update 1

Fantastic news! I finished "Looking For Alaska". Can I just say that John Green is my hero? Like, no, I really love him. He's amazingly talented. Like sure, the book had it's moments where I knew what was on it's way and I rolled my eyes, but the boys he wrote were so well fleshed out and so was Alaska. The relationship between The Corneal and Pudge just makes me crazy. As a female I almost feel like I've intruded into some secret world of boys that I'm not supposed to enter. A He-Man-Woman-Haters club or something. What was I thinking? Reading a book about a boy. DUUUH! But in all sincerity, the journey they went on and everything that happened and the search for the Great Perhaps. I mean it's true, really. I know I can relate to that feeling of not knowing what to do next in your life and pushing through it to survive and find the way out of the maze your always going to be in. All to find your Great Perhaps. I don't know, hopefully this isn't too spoiler-ific. I digress (that's one of my newest favorite things to say, I probably use it wrong about 83% of the time. "Alaska" has made it's way into the hands of my good friend and in exchange she gave me some massive book. I'm not even sure of the title right now sitting in my room. Alas, I'm reading "Twilight" anyhow. I don't know if I love it, but I am surly a sucker for romance. And I want to read Harry Potter again, but I think I'm stuck with these three books first. So that's an update.

Total 1/50
