Finished The Vault of Walt: Volume 2.  Now reading Commercial Breaks: Famous for Thirty Seconds by P.G. Kain because Blu gave me a huge stack of books to read from her bookshelf and this is the first one I picked.

 

I also read Drama by Raina Telgemeier in an hour last night because I read graphic novels fast.  That was also a book Blu gave to me.  I liked it.  It was pretty cute.  I told her she should read Smile by the same author.

Just finished Son by Lois Lowry and a day after that I started and finished The Willoughbys also by Lois Lowry. There was a weirdly bold contrast between the two.

I'm reading this play called (at least, I think that's what it's called in English) The Physicists by Friedrich Dürrematt. He wrote "Der Besuch der Alten Dame", which I forgot the name of in English but it is pretty famous. Anyway, this may sound sort of weird, but it's the first play I've ever read and I LOVE IT. I can't wait to read more plays! :D

Code Name Verity is good, I haven't finished it, though.  :-P

I am actually still reading Code Name Verity and The Scorpio Races.  Also Pi in the Sky.  It's sad.  The lack of recent reading, not Pi in the Sky.  Pi in the Sky is very happy.  I'm also behind on my wordcount.

The Land of Stories, The Wishing Spell by Chirs Colfer along with The Peculiar by Steffan Bachman. The Peculiar had such a sad ending :,( But The Land of Stories had a great ending, and there's a sequel XD

Finished Pi in the Sky, unofficially stopped Code Name Verity because I might have forgotten things.  Still slogging through The Scorpio Races.  Reread Fangirl.  I miss reading.  On my regular obsessive basis, of course.

Right now I am reading my first adult book! It's not bad or inappropriate, I read a kids book and it had more swears than this! 

Anyway, it's called Laced by Carol Higgins Clark. I really enjoy it, it's really good! It's a ghost story with a mystery. AND IT'S SET IN IRELAND!!!!

I just finished The Princess and the Goblin by George Macdonald! It's such a great fantasy story! I'm not reading anything right now. I must have more books!
