My imaginary friends.

Whelll.....

For some reason my blog will only type text centered despite my angry pounding of the keys.

  It's July. I know. I'm sure everyone has abandoned me for more exciting blogs everywhere like watchingmoldgrow.blogspot.com and peoplewhodonothingexcitingbutblogaboutitmorethanemma.blogspot.com.

  Anyway. I figure an update is called for.

  WE are STILL trying to find a place to live. Still. and I blame it on the government. We had a contract and then found out we still needed a document for student loans. I called said government and they said, "Sure! We'll have it to you in 30 to 90 days."
  So we had to walk. Just hoping we get the document soon and can get our house back. Stress.

  Everyone is still alive and breathing though the breathing is slightly more labored due to how DANG hot it is outside.

  We (my eldest monkey) is currently obsessed with squids. If anyone was wondering, yes squids do have beaks and yes a giant squid's eye IS the size of your head.

  Other than that I have been socially isolated with only these friends to comfort me.
  

This was a great one. The beginning starts out just a bit slow but give it a couple chapters and you'll be hooked.

This was was probably the farthest out there as far as dystopian novels i've read but I really liked it. The writing was excellent.

This was like my red Popsicle this summer! It is hilarious and such a quick read. I went to the author's book signing when she came to TExas (which by the way rarely happens... how authors can ignore the second largest state in the US is beyond me). I would post a pic as proof but for some reason I chose the pose that makes me look like I weigh 300 pounds and yes. I am that vain.

This is the third book in a trilogy that starts with The Forest of Hands and Teeth. It was fabulous. I recommend reading them in order. ;)

This was a practical end of the world book. It takes a totally plausible situation and then drags you through how this family deals with it. It's like a car wreck. You can't put it down and You spend the next month considering becoming a hoarder. But I think its worth it.

I'm in the middle of this one. This is def sci-fi for all you sci-fi haters but so far it's good. The jury is still out.

This is a book co-authored by the wife of Lemony Snickett (Series of Unfortunate Events). It is illustrated (not a graphic novel just pictures here and there) and is a ghost story/mystery that takes place in the civil war. I liked it but I will have to gloat and say that I called the end from the beginning. Go ahead. See if you are as smart as me. I dare you.

Liked this one. About a society where they have cured love.... but why? you ask. Why cure love? I guess you'll have to read it.
