Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella

Now... I have never heard of anyone who couldn't stop themselves from shopping themselves, and even when she kind of starts to stop, she just can't. This book does remind me of Bridget Jones in some ways, with all the british things, "shops," but all in all it was cute nonetheless. Yes, it is a girly book, and yes, I stayed up way to late finishing it, but it was quick and light and easy. If you're female and of the chick lit type: then this book is for you, otherwise, I'd probably leave it off your list, but if you ever felt so horrible for someone like this girl, why I can't imagine. Anyway, that's just another off the list. On to something more serious for the next perhaps...

The Polysyllabic Spree by Nick Hornby

This book... fabulous. Although he reads a lot of things I would never read, almost 90% of what he reads, he still manages to keep me entertained with his blabber. It really is good, somewhat boring I'd think if you don't like reading, but for me -- I stayed up late last night to finish it. And it caused the beginning of this website. Some of the books he read I'd actually like to read, and some I have read. Although the number of those I could count on one hand. Other than that it really was enjoyable even though it was about books, and it made me want to read more, never a bad thing. So all in all - if you like reading, this book's for you... otherwise ask me personally if it's for YOU becuase it might just be boring if you're that kind of person. It was light and funny, and the passages picked out from the books he was reading that given month were interesting. It's worked as a sort of personal tale along with a description of writing and reading in general and of course... boooks. Hoorah!

A Blog for Books

So this'll be it... A blog for all the books I can read. And yes I can read, hence the title of the page.
