Haha

I should not be allowed to blog in the middle of the night after I've taken my Ambien. You can thank this magical sleeping pill for my bizarre previous blog. So, in addition to apologizing for my ramblings, I would like to take this moment to share with you my thoughts on some books I've read during my summer vacation.

1. Become Your Own Match Maker- Patti Stanger-
This book took me like five seconds to read. It was mildly amusing. I heart the show, and the book was very much like the show. But I did walk away with some tips I may try.

2. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies-
All I have to say is please please do not read this book. It is probable the worst thing I have ever read. I had to read the real Pride and Prejudice afterwards to get this horrible book out of my mind

3. The Shoe Queen- Anna Davis-
This was a book I impulsively picked up at the library, mainly because it deals with shoes. It was however, a pretty good book. The characters were well developed. The plot was not that original or gripping (married woman has an affair and falls in love with another man), but I really did get to know the characters. I would recommend this one.
4. The Book of Jane- Anne Dayton-
Another impulse pick from the library. It turned out to be Christian chick lit. It was not the great American novel, but it kept me entertained and had a warm fuzzy message.

5. Brave New World- Aldous Huxley-
This is one of my favorite books ever. I love the thought provoking plot and ideas. Are we heading in this direction? Thoughts?

6. The Shack- William Young-
I read this book after a lot of convincing from my mom. I hated it. I hate kids dying. I understand the "message" of the book, but I could not get over the little girl dying.

Any suggestions for #7?

Also I want an iPhone.
