Reading Again!

Hello,

I finally did some reading today. I haven't actually read something for fun in months, so this was good for me. I had my Oryx & Crake test on Friday and I was still 70 pages from the end of the book, so I finished that off today. I really liked the ending, it kind of continued the feeling of the book and gave the reader the impression that life goes on regardless of what has happened. I was really impressed at how well she did that. It kind of reminds me of how I tried to end one of my stories "Don't Let Go". It's just raw and real yet beautiful.

I also started reading Angelology by Danielle Trussoni today. It's very well written, I'm quite impressed. I was lulled into a false sense of security by her writing style, it started out looking like a book about a nun in her convent and an artist who works as a P.I. on the side, and then there's an old man who was youthful in the early 1800's which completely threw me off and reminded me that this book does in fact have a fantasy element to it. A rather substantial one. I'm already 37 pages in. I'll be taking this one to Europe with me I think. It seems appropriate, as it appears that it will be set in Paris at one point or another.

Other than that my day was slow, I went out in search of Bromelain tablets for a biology enzyme lab I'm performing tomorrow, and I also picked up more hair smoother. Exciting.

Bye for now!
