i am reading a book right now for my independant reading project... the best thing about this reading project is that we got to choose what book we wanted to read as long as my teacher approved it... no list or anything that we had to choose from.
anyway, i've been meaning to read the book "through painted deserts" by don miller for quite some time cause i've heard it's good, and so by choosing this book for my project, i made it so that i had to read. let me tell you, i am so glad i chose this book. i've harldy past page 60, so i am not that far along, but i am loving this book. i love this guy's writing style! he just writes so well an thinks of some things that you have to wonder, how in the world did he get to thinking this?
so everything about this book is really good, except for one thing...
reading this book makes me want to grab a buddy, hop in a v-dub bus, and go on a road trip, and although that would normally be a good reaction, it's not good when i am still in school and am incapable of doing so for an extended period of time because of school. oh well, the time shall come :)
and this will sound weird, but so far, my favorite part is the author's note in the beginning... honestly, this guy's writing is genious.
oh, and another cool thing is that one of his writing inspirations is anne lamott, the author of my last independent reading novel... yay for connections being made.
well, i hope your week is finding you well...
is that a saying? i'm not sure. it just sounds like i've heard it somewhere before.
