Not a very interesting photo today, but I suppose there's more of a story behind this one. My reading habit has severely slipped over the past year. Starting with a few weeks ago, I've been trying to get my hands on as many books as possible, as if to make up for lost time.Some I've read before, but have never owned a copy. Others are completely new and alien, and are recommended by friends more literate than myself. Others are what I've been meaning to pick up for a long time. Others have been lent to me generously by friends. Most have been found on sale. The Penguin Popular Classics are my new hero, as they offer amazing books at lower prices (since they print on 95% recycled paper, and spend less on packaging). Others weren't as kind on my wallet, but I had to get them anyway!
The current (and eclectic?) reading list:
1) Judith Butler's Gender Trouble
2) Augusten Burrough's Possible Side Effects
