I was at Border's today...and checking out books from one aisle to the other. Whether it is in the section of 'New Arrival' or ' New York Time bestselling', I just can't quit find a book for myself to read, or a book that can instantly draw my attention to...
Anyhow, I grabbed a couple books such as "Black Swan" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb and a couple more books that I don't recall their names. I did flip through the pages til I realize that this book is not for me....and guess since I can't even recall the names, I don't think I should pick them up again when I go visit border's next week.
I remember it was so much easier for me to find a book for my age before, I just go up to the 'young adult' section, and read about love stories, tragedies, family dilemmas about young teenage girls...Jodi Picoult was one of my favorite author, and all the series of ' Traveling Pants of the Sisterhood' was the highlight of my "book time" with best friends. But now, finding that perfect book to read seems harder than finding a guy to buy drinks when they are still sober. Well, bad analogy, but I did notice guys are getting cheap nowdays and getting them to buy drinks when they are sober...needs some work and communication first. Urgh, which means pre-party sounds more ideal for me. Anyways, as a 23 years old, recent college graduate, single- not so looking for a love life yet, and want to know more about this world and curious about life in general, what kind of book will fit my appetite?
No appetite for turkey during this thanksgiving week, but definitely a desperate starvation for a book that can enlighten my world and rock my brain again.
