Blond Girl Waves Frantically

[Sandy_124]

Hello everyone!

I love reading, surprise huh? I also like to write, something I just recently discovered, so I'm terrible at it, but I enjoy it. Still, don't look for any short story posts from me for a while, still busy trying to put sentences together with both hands.

I just discovered this site and am excited. It seems like a great place to learn about good reads.

I like just about all kinds of books, I think I actually enjoy the young adult books better, not so much because they are young adult, but because it seems to me they are the most creative and interesting being published atm.

Favorite books of all time I would have to say are:

The Potter series
The Stand (King)
Grapes of Wrath (Steinbeck)
Atlas Shrugged (Rand)
Dune (Herbert)
Watership Down (Adams)

Most recently read:
Bartimaus (Stroud)
Thousand Splendid Suns
The Count of Monte Cristo
1984
The Alchemist
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Adams)

Books I disliked:
The Road (Macarthy)
On Beauty (Smith)

As I am trying to be a writer, I also feel a need to build up karma by purchasing first time authors, so I look for those books.

New books I've read recently:
Three Bags Full (Swan)
A Certain Slant of Light (Whitcomb)
