What really sucks is on top of all the shit I'm going through, I can't even find refuge in reading books. It started at the end of August when I requested the four books I wanted to read this month. I thought I had requested them with enough time that they'd come in time for the beginning of September and I would have one book to read a week. That was the goal. It's been three weeks and I've only checked out two of those four books and only read one of those two books. It's really disappointing because I was looking forward to reading those books this month. The one book I did read, How to Talk to a Widower by Jonathan Tropper was excellent, but I had requested another one of his novels and it's still not in my possession. I started reading the next book I checked out, The Other Normals by Ned Vizzini. It wasn't what I expected and for a while I thought about not finishing it. But today, I decided to just keep reading it because I like Ned Vizzini, the chapters are short and quick and I'm not going waste this month by reading one book. Because half of my books took three weeks (and counting) to get to me, I requested four more books. Three of those books are a series by Meg Cabot and luckily enough for me, the last two books became available before the very first book of the series. So I can't even start that series when I finish The Other Normals.
This is the most disappointed I've been about books ever. I hate this feeling. All I want to do right now is escape in a good book. It seems like all the books I requested only have one copy and its checked out already. Just my luck, I suppose.
Sorry for the somber post, but I thought I'd keep you updated. I haven't been posting lately and now you know why. I hope you're doing better than me and really enjoying the book you're reading. I hope to get back on a regular schedule on the blog soon.
