What are you currently reading?- On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft by Stephen King

What did you recently finish reading?- “Recently” being relative I last read was Bitten by Kelly Armstrong and I read it this summer.

What do you think you’ll read next? – I think I want to finish one of the Anthony Horowitz series that I started.

La Lune et Moi

La Lune et Moi

The moon and I stayed up together
Keeping each other company
We immersed ourselves in darkness together
Shining our few beams of light

The moon and I read together
Although I opted for a book
The moon read humanity
And so we were lost in our worlds together

But, without me the moon read humanity
One part of the globe at a time
Without me it witnessed the evils of darkness
From its perch so high

Because all the scum and the worst come out in the dark
They wreak havoc and leave discord in their wake
And the moon watches, sometimes hiding itself in the darkness
Still watching

And I am left with nothing but their aftermath
As the sun burns away all the culprits
I wait for the darkness, for the moon. I too have become a creature of it
Perhaps this time with a better book

Quote of the Week

I like life. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.- Agatha Christie

Word of the Week

Abibiliophobia- the fear of running out of reading material

Quote of the Week

Except for a living man, there is nothing more wonderful than a book. A book is a message to us from human souls we never saw. And yet these books arouse us, terrify us, teach us, comfort us, open our hearts to us as brothers

-Charles Kingsley
