I think stores are always assuming I'm shoplifting, they'll follow me around and constantly ask if I need help, it's completely annoying and makes me not one to go in there. If I go in with dude then they don't. >:
 
I loved bookshops theres one now in my town ,i like second hand book shops like to see books made in the fifties and earlier love the dustjackets and the discolouration- i laughed remembering helene hanff replying to frank dole in the movie' 84 charing cross road' that she was delighted by English books with leather covers and gold edging so ornate '
She almost salivated ,i like stories like 84 charing cross road '
Her eyesight was weak like mine so i understood her character

I just finished 2 books-

Monster (by A. Lee Martinez)- I enjoyed this fantasy novel. Never heard of it before I saw it at the used book store during a sale! It's a good mix of fantasy and comedy.

I also read Avengers X-Men: Axis graphic novel. I liked it for the most part.
 
I just finished a three book series called Geek Girl, was a very fast read for me, I read a book and a half in one day. It was filled with fun facts which I just loved (geek) and the girl in it had gotten into modeling via somebody else putting her in it not through her wanting to be one and going on auditions and whatnot, so it was very interesting for me.
 
The Gustav Sonata by Rose Tremain. I gave it to my mum last Christmas at her request. She liked it (as do the critics) but I didn't. Plodding prose, lacking in atmosphere and too much unnecessary detail about bodily functions. The main character reads Struwwelpeter in bed - why on earth?!
 
I read this one at a nearby library today. Very hilarious!:D

I don't really read that much but I like books. The last one I read was a biography about The Psychedelic Furs, a band that I'm into. It was really good and it made me know about them more.

As for favorite books, my favorite book is Gone With The Wind. I had read it so many times and it's probably the first book that made me get into the story and the characters.
