Things I'm Loving

I'm definitely loving books this week! Since I'm taking the semester off, I have a lot of time to just read and do whatever. I've read two Augusten Burroughs books so far and I'm starting my third one today, A Wolf At The Table, which is a memoir about his father. I was so incredibly happy when it came in the mail today! I'm hoping this book will be as good as Possible Side Effects and Running With Scissors were. I also just ordered some of the books that True Blood are based on. I've heard some good reviews from friends and others, so I'm hoping they are good reads :)

  1. I love Augusten Burroughs! I still need to read a wolf at the table. The sookie stackhouse novels are good! I haven't read the newest one because I heard some bad reviews (such as the author isn't consistent) so it's taking me a while to pick it up. Enjoy your new reads!

  4. My best friend let me borrow the entire Sookie Stackhouse series, and they are incredibly entertaining - much better than the show, IMO. :D

  5. @Additionsstyle - Yes, it's definitely one of my favorites too!

    @aquariann - Good to know! I bought books 1 - 10 off ebay on a whim and was hoping that they'd be good so that it would turn into a nice purchase lol.

  6. I love him! That, however, was one of my least favorite books. But still a pretty good read.
