It scares me a little xD I am afraid I won't do any better next year.

I watched the movie "The Perks of being a wallflower" for a second time a few days ago and I liked it that much that I ordered the book xD Should be here by tomorrow :3

The library just sent me a notice that they got in "Disco for the Departed". I'm going to try and pick it up tomorrow, but I might not get off work early enough to make it over there before it's closed. Still, it makes me happy.

maybe that's a bit too much pressure then?

I really enjoyed the trashy romance that I read. So I started reading another book that looked like it might be a trashy romance. And it has very good reviews. But bleh. I think it's pretty stinky so far!

I didn't get the book in time. Work ran so late I wasn't off until a couple hours too late, so since I didn't make it anyhow I stopped by family on the way home and I'll have to get to the library tomorrow.

Sanssouci, what things do you enjoy most in books? Snappy dialogue? High-tension pacing? Ridiculously overblown language? If you give me some parameters I can probably recommend some, because I read a lot of romance books, some of which are definitely trashy although others of which I will defend fiercely from that label! :qt:

I like trashy romances from time to time as well :)
I am sorry the book is not like what you've expected :/

Alice, yes, it fits suprisingly well with linguistics :)
