Good Morning Brandi,
Today is august twentieth, and I finally started another book.
Not by free will, but the thought counts, right?
Yesterday, my American Lit class started and we were assigned a book that has been on my list for quite a while, ((as you can see, I don't go in the chronological order that I worked so hard to put in order for no apparent reason)) and I am truly thrilled to read this book.
The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien.
I haven't got too far in this book, but I already love how it is written, though, I have been warned that the writing style completely changes. So, we'll see how this pans out.
What truly amazes me is that the first chapter was simply a short story, and it won a freaking Pulitzer Prise.
That's just. Freaking. Nuts. And I believe it too, looking at the details that were so carefully written in.
I am ecstatic to finish this book, and I plan to do so sometime in the near future. 9/10 would continue reading. The tenth got into a misfortunate........ accident.
Well, it's now 6:35, and I have to be leaving soon. So. Be good.
My little soldiers, I hope you shall be brave in my absence. Mommy will be home soon.
I love you guys. Stay cool.
~ Josh
