This is a book about
a girl who can’t touch people without killing them. The government threw in a
cell for murder. No one knows why Juliette can kill people by touching them.
And the world is crumbling to pieces anyway so no one has time for her. Then
the government finds out that it might be a good idea to use Juliette and she
has to choose. It doesn’t have the best reviews on Goodreads, and looking back
I’m not sure why I bought it, I think it was like 2 dollars or something on
Amazon, and it sounded vaguely interesting. I’m looking forward to it. It
sounds cool.
This has
been on my TBR for so long. It sounds amazing, I just never got into it. As far
as I understand it the book is made up of a bunch of different stories that
sort of interlock and they are sort of related to each other through time. It
sounds cool. So maybe now after I think a year almost on my iPad I’ll actually
read it.
I like
words. I really really like words. I find words fascinating, I like certain
words. I like serendipity and decapitation, because I’m odd. The Horologicon is
a book about the most extraordinary books in the English language. It’s full of
weird words for completely normal situations, like fudgelling (pretending to
work). I’m looking forward to it. It’ll be fun.
Not
surprisingly I didn’t finish the Lord of the Rings, because it’s enormous. I’ve
started though. The language is really freaking awesome and the story is cool.
I had forgotten how much actually happens before they get to Rivendell. So much
is cut out from the movie, which obviously makes sense. I don’t think hours of
Frodo becoming older and deliberating, and moving would give much to the movie,
but it is interesting to read about. They just met Aragorn, so that’s cool.
