I read every day, just not as much as I would like to.
Black Heart by Holly Black
One phrase description: Magic.
Quote:
Getting through it once makes it easier to believe that it can be gotten through again.
My general thoughts: I read the other two books in the series forever ago, but that being said, I think I liked White Cat and Red Glove a little more. My old age is getting to me. Thanks Goodreads for the beautiful picture. Bite me. I borrowed the book from the library, so it wasn’t camera worthy.
White Noise by Don DeLillo
One phrase description: Think of this novel like the shape of a U because the beginning and ending was much more bearable than the middle.
Quote:
Every disaster made us wish for more, for something bigger, grander, more sweeping.
My general thoughts: Not my kind of book. I probably wouldn’t have finished it if I didn’t have to.
Arcadia by Tom Stoppard
One phrase description: Short, sweet, sublime.
Quote:
It’s the best possible time to be alive, when almost everything you thought you knew is wrong.
My general thoughts: A challenging read, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I recommend watching the play being performed or listening to the audio version of it as well.
The Eye of Minds by James Dashner
One phrase description: Almost like a video game playing out in the form a book, although it’s probably better suited as a movie.
Quote:
Your demons are always with you.
My general thoughts: Since “everything is relative”, the Maze Runner books were more well-written than this one. At least, I didn’t see the plot twist coming.
I’m currently reading…
Beloved by Toni Morrison
Why: University and because I’ve always wanted to.
Until next month…November. You know what that means.
