About Me
I am currently working on my Master's Thesis, but I procrastinate by reading all the books I can! In the meantime, I have a good job with fun people.

Fahrenheit 451
Fahrenheit 451
By Ray Bradbury
0345342968
Well, the book gets a 10/10. Brilliantly done. The extra parts- 9/10. It messed up the book! Example- The fire chief having books in his house? That defeats the purpose of having Guy plant the book in his house and call in the tip! Why were the extras even included?

Seven for a Secret
Seven for a Secret
By Victoria Holt
0449221776
Definitely some twists and turns here that no one could have seen coming! You knew that certain people were going to be involved in horrible events, but you didn't know to what extent and you didn't know other people who would be involved. And the secrets that you never see coming, those are great! I like not figuring out the end of a book 50 pages into it, it's refreshing.

George and Laura
George and Laura: Portrait of an American Marriage
By Christopher Anderson
0066213703
Nice to read about a 'celebrity' marriage (or a sort of celebrity marriage) where the main characters get along and genuinely like and love each other. I love them constantly telling people that their spouse is the strong one, it's so adorable in a way and so powerful in another. I think I would like these two if I ever had the chance to meet them in real life (not that I will, but hypothetically you know!)
