i just finished Borderliners by Peter Hoag. (o has funny scandinavian slash thingy through it but i couldn't figure out how to do that). it was this really odd story about children who are societal "borderliners" placed as an experiment at a prestigious danish private boarding school in the 70's. it also contains a lot of musings on society, fitting in, and most of all about time. i liked it a lot.
next thing i have to read is War and Peace. for school. NOT looking forward to that. |

That just reminded me I need to dig out all my Vampire Chronicles books for the summer holidays :-D |
I'm reading The Stand by Stephen King for like the fourth time.
It's ridiculously long but God it's worth the read. My favourite book of all time is It by Stephen King, which again is ridiculously long but worth it. I have a thing about long books, more than 1000 pages and I'm sold. x |
I'm reading Every Dead Thing by John Connolly at the mo'. 'Tis rather good, but I've still got 3/4 to go :P
|
Same as before, but I've also started Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy. :)
|
The last book I finished was The Girls Who Went Away by Ann Fessler. It's about young women that became pregnant and were sent away to unwed mother's homes during 1947-1973. What they went through before, during and after they surrendered their child. It's a very enlightening book on the subject. It really enables you to see the situation from the mother's point of view.
I'm currently reading Crank by Ellen Hopkins. This one is about a girl named Kristina. She's pretty much a good girl gone "bad". She lives with her mom & step-dad in a nice neighborhood, has good friends, gets good grades, etc. Then the summer before her junior year of high school, she starts have problems w/ her mom. So she decides to get in contact with her deadbeat dad, and later moves in with him. There she meets a guy, her first love, who introduces her to crank aka "the monster"........ You have to read it to find out the rest! |
