What up, yo!

First a True Story:

Thursday, 6pm, I see a parcel on my front stoop.

Me: Ooo! A parcel! I wonder what it is! I thought I'd gotten everything I was supposed to get already.Husband: Well, aren't you special.Me: *opens parcel and see's The Humming Room by Ellen Potter*Me: Ooohh! The Humming Room! I totally wanted to read this!Husband: Wait, didn't YOU BUY this book?Me: I guess I did. I don't remember, but I guess I did, I mean, the packing slip says I did. I think I remember doing this.Husband: You know you have a book-buying problem when you can't even remember what books you're getting anymore.Me: *maturely sticks out tongue at husband*

End scene.

And now! The books I mention in this video:

And, hey! I'd link all of these up to Goodreads as usual, but the site just went down as I was finishing up this post, so, you get two links for your viewing pleasure. You'll have to find the others on your own because I will totally forget about coming back here and fixing up this post once it's done. I have no memory capacity anymore. =PI'm going to continue reading Unrest now. Happy weekend, Internet!
