What I'd Give for a Good Book


Many of us compulsive readers have to finish reading any book we start. It's supposed to be a sign of maturity--or old age--when you can bring yourself to throw in the towel when you're reading something that's taking you nowhere.

Well, I've thrown in the towel on at least six books this summer. They were all adult books, so I shouldn't go into them here. I will say that the last two didn't seem to have a story. Or I couldn't find it. One of them was a work of fiction that I thought was supposed to be philosophical. I kept thinking, When's the philosophy starting? Then I realized that maybe it already had, and I just didn't get it.

I've gone back to YA and am reading I am the Messenger by Marcus Zusak. A bank robbery is foiled in the very first pages. I was reading along and thinking, Thank God! Something is happening!

Later my friends told me that if I want to play the game better I should go to earn the kal geons, so I was very quickly risen to thirty levels, and then I started to play the game alone.I spend a lot of kal gold to treat myself in this game. However she was also very sad when I was hurt, she was sorry about this to me and I did not complain her at last. I was very happy and we went to earn the kal online geons to equip us to become strong. Today I play the game again and I can get a lot of kal online gold for her, I take her to upgrade and then add her experience. I have a lot of kalonline Geons and I want to give her in the game.
