Oh good, I haven't posted about this yet - I AM READING PET SEMATARY AND IT IS FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!!!!

I'm only halfway through it though. Curse my lazy lack of reading >.<

I just finished reading Shoe Addicts Anonymous by Beth Harbison. It's the perfect book when you're on holiday.

I reread The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian while I was in Ballarat. I now fully appreciate that both movies were vast improvements on the books.

I still haven't seen Prince Caspian, but anything has to be an improvement on "They went to Narnia, ate apples, went for a walk, and then there was a battle, the end." Not the best of the series, I think.

Nineteen Minutes - Jodi Picoult. Brilliant, Moving, Sad, Heartbreaking. Recommend to all Jodi fans Although... My Sister's Keeper is still my favourite.

I'm reading Animal Farm by George Orwell for school, and i must say, it's boring me to death, so when i get the chance every now and again I'm reading Breath by Tim Winton

I like Animal Farm

I remember doing a book report on it high school. My teacher was going on about all of the politics behind it, and I was like "Yeah yeah yeah whatever. They're ANIMALS, and they're running a FARM! O_O"

I don't much care for humans or their politics, so I can see where it would be boring
