Just something to see what everyone is reading.

 Wondering what kind of book you have sitting next to you :)

Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:

If you draw a circle, there will always be an inside and an outside, and unless you're a total nut job, it's pretty easy to see which is which.

Before I fall by Lauren Oliver

The other book sitting next to me is a manga. LOL It's hard finding the 4th line in manga :)

"you"ve found out my secret"

Sayonara, Zetsubou -Sensei by Koji Kumeta



Note: I have 5 manga to my left nearest me and about 35 books/manga to my right that are nearest to me. I don't think you want me to post all of those lines :D

Thanks to Maxiekatt2 she had  this on her journal so I thought I would nab it

Oops. Well, the book I'm actually reading (The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter) is in the living room... so you're getting a phrase right out of my handy dandy Indonesian phrasebook that is always on my desk. XD

"tidak/bukan" (means "no")

I used to keep a dictionary close to me but then my kids borrowed it and it disappeared.

I like learning what No means in other countries :) see I learned something new today!

I thought you got a magnifying glass for Christmas?

i did get a magnifier, but it only magnifies by 2x. not enough for my low visioned self.

'm fine, just it makes me feel sad when i do stop by. all the books discussed that i can't read.

Sorry you feel sad when you stop by. I haven't been buying or reading like I used to. I seem to get in 2 maybe 3 young adult books a month. And of course I still am reading the but it feels like I haven't been reading as much as before.

Maybe you can get a more powerful magnifier that could help.

That was my anonymous. I am getting very frustrated with livejournal. It used to keep you in for weeks now it seems like I am logging in at least once or twice a day. (If I forget to log in then I'm anonymous.
