The Insanely Ironic Life of Alex Violet.

Yes, I'm a little crazy. But isn't everyone a little crazy nowadays?

It is 2 pm. June 23, 2009

Okay, so I read 2 books yesterday, if you notice I updated my list. I’m reading the third Mediator book and I’m on page 106 or so.
Guy(s), it’s occured to me the only entries I’ve actually written so far (aside from the first one or so) are all about books. So I should tell you now that they will not ALL be about books. Like right now, for instance:

Guess what? I’m going out west for August! I won’t tell you where out west, just in case you’re a creeper, but I will tell you I’m v., v. excited about this. I have family out there and will be visiting for a while. I’ve been there twice before, once in the summer, (the first time I went, I was going into either 5th or 6th grade, I don’t remember which) and once in the winter (the winter before last).

Now that that’s out of the way, all I feel I have left to say (OME! Rhyme!) is:

  • Read Mediator & Palace of Mirrors & my Blog
  • I enjoy used-bookstores and old movie theatres. (Random, but true :)
  • And enjoy yourselves, people! It’s a beautiful summer! I checked the temperature where I am about 20 minutes ago and it’s about 29-30 degrees out! (Celcius.)
  • Sincerely,
    A Bookworm. (Alex Violet.)

     

    The Mediator: Shadowland – Meg Cabot June 22, 2009

    I have a feeling that this summer will consist mostly of reading.

    I read another book for the gist of today so far, it’s the first one in the Mediator series by Meg Cabot. One of the girls who works at the children’s desk in the library reccomended it to me and as soon as I finished Palace of Mirrors I started on this one. And I finished it about a half hour ago. And it ROCKED.

    So you can tell I really need to:
    a) Get started on those reviews I promised!
    b) Read the next Mediator book
    c) Find my list of books I’ve read so I can update it. And once I do that, I should copy it out in like, 19 places so I won’t have to worry about loosing it again. I think maybe I should put it on this blog somewhere…

    Anyway, I do recommend this book. It’s about a 16-year-old girl who can talk to ghosts and found out she’s moving to a place with some really old buildings (old buildings = more ghosts). And at her school she’s seemingly replaced a popular girl who’s commited suicide over the holiday. And one thing’s for sure, Heather will not make room for anyone.
    Compared to Twilight, this book has less romance and more action, and clearly more books in its series. (Notice: I’m not saying it’s better or worse!)

    It’s times like these that I figure I should start a book club.
