so i never updated on the books i was reading

the picture of dorian gray - 6/10
they kept talking about scandals and stuff, but you never actually found out what they were. it was a cool idea, and i probably would have liked it more if i had been in the mood for it.

brave new world - 7/10
wasn't what i thought it was going to be. it was interesting. for distopian future stories, i liked 1984 and oryx and crake better.

today i picked up jonathan strange and mr. norrell by susanna clarke, because i remembered my grade 12 english teacher had a copy and i always thought the cover looked interesting. plus i have a thing for thick books, this one's just over 1000 pages.
oh i also picked up a short story by neil gaimen, i forget what it's called.

when i was younger and took out books from the library, i always would pick out the three thickest books i could find with dragons on the cover haha. i remember finding this one really cool series about dragons, i forget what it was though. lol i'm such a dork.

Fave book is also one of the thickest ever written, Atlas Shrugged. I stole (heh, sorry) Craig's copy of Oryx and Crake but haven't read it yet, worth it?

speaking of stealing, you also owe me like 10 blank dvds
