Old Love vs. New

When I was about nine (I'm probably wrong. I don't remember too much from that time. I don't really want to.) I was afraid some other book would come along and replace Artemis Fowl. I shouldn't have worried. Artemis Fowl is one of a kind. The Lord of the Rings is one of a kind. I haven't even finished the whole thing, but I am in love with it. If only I could talk to Tolkien for a day and figure out what he was like. I can't decide which book I like best. That is okay with me. There is room enough for a million books in my heart. One other book I haven't finished but love already is The Hound of the Baskervilles. I guess it's the first real mystery book I've read and I plan to read more Sherlock Holmes.

I'm not going to tell you when my book plans have changed. Yes, they have changed yet again and I still have 6 days til NaNoWriMo so it probably will change at least two more times I'm guessing.

I was going to blog about this a week ago but blogging isn't that fun anymore (like it ever was). I am no longer the 1st counselor for the Beehives. Here is the part that I'm not supposed to be super excited about but am anyway. I'm not in the presidency at all! There are just enough girls now for a whole presidency and one. I'm that one! Call me a slacker if you want to but I'll turn up my music. And just in time for NaNo WriMo. Six more days. Hope I can come up with a good story plot by then.

You don't have to be in the presidency to enjoy being in the Beehives. It's great to belong to a group.

I LOVED that Nova clip you put on my blog, and was impressed with the connections you made between all the stories. You would probably like that book, Survival of the Sickest. And if you do, then read Guns, Germs and Steel and explain it to me.

I think you should be a librarian when you grow up because it sounds like you love books like Carl. Then I think you should write books on the side with a pen name or what ever they call doing that! You would be awesome!!! And I would be cool to my self because I know a famous author but I couldn't reveal that to anyone. Good luck with NaNo WriMo!
