Okay, so it's summer. I read A LOT over the summer. When all my friends are out of town and I'm tired of going to the beach every damn day, I like to pick up a book and read until I finish it.

So if you're reading or just finished a really good book and want to suggest it, post the title and author here. Even a little summary if you want to.

I just finished possibly the best book that I've ever read. It's called Impulse by Ellen Hopkins. I LOVE IT. So great and angsty and romantic. And someone dies. That's usually a plus for me. Very Happy

READING IS FUN! PEOPLE STILL LIKE TO READ! HELP ME PROVE IT!

Okay, not exactly a book, but I just finished reading the new issue of AP. It was good. I laughed so hard at the cover quote.

"22 ISSUE: Celebrate 22 years with 22 lists about 22 things over, um, 30 pages. (Someone's getting fired....)"

Haha, loved it. The article on The Used was good, too. I was a little disappointed when Bert said that Chadam was just a way to get attention off of the personal reasons behind his lyrics. Made me a little angry at stupid Bert.

Oh well. Chadam can kick Bert's ass. He can just headbutt him and Bert would probably die. Very Happy

Oh my god, I know! She's amazing! My friend, Abby, let me borrow Crank after she read it and I got hooked. I was SO sad when I finished Impulse. I want her to write a sequel SO badly! It was SOOOOO great.

I hope she writes a sequel. Impulse just ended too abruptly. It kinda leaves you feeling like it's not over.

Plus, I wanna know what happens with Tony and Vannessa, and (SPOILER IN QUOTE)

I know! The paper airplane was SOOOOOO sad. I had a break down. I kinda feel like I related to Connor the most, so that part made me feel sad.

I understood why Connor "did it" though. I almost did, too. But, my friends helped me, and actually LG15 forums kind of helped get me out of my depression.
