Infected byyy someon that starts with an S.
Aha, went and got the book.
By Scott Sigler.
it's about a disease that's turning people into psychotic paranoid killers and it alternates between following a victim of the disease and the people trying to figure it out and stop it, and occasionally telling about the disease.
I love it, it's interesting and I can't wait to get to the sequel.

The Missing Class
Talking about how the definition of the lower class/poor people in America is shifting to the ones who are loosing their homes, single mothers, working 3 jobs to support their kids, etc.
It is rather depressing. )=

I read The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants last week. We watched the movie earlier and I was reading something about it that said that Lena's story was super different in the book so I decided to read it.
I just finished It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini about a depressed teenager checking himself into a mental hospital. I liked it.

Taking a break from Yama/The Pit (Alexander Kuprin) to read Descartes' Meditations - well not so much a break, but juggling both.

I just finished Controversy Creates Cash. It's a wrestling book, lololol but it was $1.92 hardback and I wasn't passing that up. It's the autobiography of Eric Bischoff, one of the people synonymous with wrestling's boom in the mid-to-late 90s. Interesting read, but I'm also a sucker for autobiographies.

Just finished Lessons From a Dead Girl by Jo Knowles.
I don't know how to explain it so I'll just take the summary off the library website.
After her former friend Leah dies in an automobile accident, Laine remembers their troubled relationship, dating back to elementary school when Leah convinced Laine to "practice" in the closet with her, and Leah controlled her every thought.
I didn't like it that much.
Starting Blue is for Nightmares by Laurie Faria Stolarz. I'll steal the summary for this one too..
Sixteen-year-old hereditary witch Stacey Brown has nightmares of her roommate being murdered and hopes that her magick will be enough to protect Drea--unlike the last person whose death Stacey dreamed.
I've only read a chapter but it seems pretty good so far.

I had to return Yama, to my dismay, before I could finish it - that's alright, though.
Going to start Foma Gordeyev by Maxim Gorky soon, can't wait. Know nothing about it, but that it's bridging the gap between the 19th and 20th century of russian literature.

Currently nothing, but my friend just gave me a bunch of her old books before she moved to Tokyo. One is called "Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Book Got Wrong"
I'mma start with that one.
