Thoughts from the bookshelf – Groundhog Edition

  1. There are two books I am able to read over and over – The Stand by Stephen King and The Dragon and the Unicorn by A.A. Attanasio. Every time I read them, they are new all over again.
  2. A book I never, ever want to read again? The Watchers by Jon Steele. All due to the lone female character of Katherine. Worst. Damsel-in-distress. Stereotype. Ever. Useless character there only for sexual situations it seems. Did she really have to be a prostitute Steele?thoughts from the bookshelf
  3. Worst nightmare ever? Being stuck on a deserted island without a book to read.
  4. If I ever become a ghost stuck on earth the first thing I will do is learn how to hold a book in my ghostly hands so that I can keep reading for eternity.
  5. Do you think alien beings on other planets have books?
  6. Imagine plugging a book in and having the entire world of that book open up before you in 3D imagery and tell you the story? Like a movie, but it follows the book exactly!! Sigh.
  7. Anytime the statement “I don’t like to read” is uttered, a book fairy dies.
  8. The librarian fantasy is due to the fact that all people everywhere, secretly think reading is sexy.
  9. In a past life of mine I was a female mystery writer in the 1800`s and wrote under a male pseudonym.  This is according to an old friend of mine who claimed to have visions of people`s past lives.  I don`t know how I feel about this.  I don`t really like mystery.
  10. If I had a time machine I would go back in time and beg Stephenie Meyer to write a book about fairies instead of vampires.  At least I can buy the idea of fairies sparkling.

Reading is like eating for me. It's a must.

  1. Hi there!
    #6: That would be awesome!
    #10: I second that! The sparkling thing, what was that in vampires?
    IMHO… Cheers! Great post! :)

  2. If aliens don’t have books, we should just call off the search now.

  3. #7 agreed.
    #10 LOL – well, if and only if she simply MUST write at all…..
