goodreads

awhile back i said i would love to have a online book club type thing and tonight i found goodreads.com
i joined, i like it
i am learning more about it
my widget is just the left over there ----> and slightly down
and if you have it too let me know!

also lately I am obsessed with words.with.friends
it's a scrabble like game
for iphones, droids and maybe more
my username is Whittneyevans
not to be confused with my usual gamer name of potterpants
because honestly, i was not thinking.

2011 so far: Seattle skylines, circus tents, London shops and Paris

okay so not actually in person, but in books

it's official I have had my nose in a book the whole year

day 27 of the new year and I started my 4th book

that's a lot for me

i am a slow reader.

so far i have loved them all.

30 year old love story fanatic mormon girl finds loves in an unusual way.

So much more than circus life during the Great Depression.
 But I don't want to give anything away, just read it.
But warning you are going to want a pet elephant after.

As long as Sophie Kinsella writes about Becky Bloomwood I will read it.
I laughed the whole way though it.

I am only on page 19 but I have a feeling that I am going to like it.

Yes it is true that not a single one of these books is on "the list", i will get there. And I have crossed a few off "the list" The Other Boleyn girl:check, Pride and Prejudice:check, 1776:check, The hungry games series:check. And a few others off the list. check.check.check


I also need to add a few to the list off the top of my head: World War Z, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, The Uglies series, Son of a Witch, Frankenstein, finish Confessions of Georgia Nicholson books.... okay new list coming soon. Get your suggestions in now.

I need a book club.

Are there such thing as online book clubs?

the list

How cool would it be to have a gigantic library in your house like in Beauty and the Beast, where there are ladders to climb and endless books to read. i want one.

Lately i just want to read, lots, but don't have that much time at least not for another 4 weeks and then I can get started on my list of books I want to read. It keeps growing faster than I can read them, but one day I will.
