Whoa man, cool.

As I was sitting there on a chair bored out of my mind with one of my best friends, a DVD was placed into his x box 360 that forever changed my life. Donnie Darko is a story about a boy that is convinced that he's on the brink of discovering time travel, and isn't going to let anybody stand in his way for the truth. Most said it was just his schizophrenic medication but a series of coincidental events prove otherwise. Donnie reminded me a lot of myself, minus the schizophrenia, as he, like I, obtains such motivation towards a very mysterious topic and goes through with finding an answer not knowing what the outcome will even be remotely close to.

It was the eve of my book needing to be read for my grade 11 ENG 3U (English) course and I was loving every second of it. It actually got to the point where I finished reading the last page and I wanted to go back and read the entire thing over before the morning’s sunrise. The Crimson Legion starts with Rikus and the battle to save Tyr against the armies of Urik. The end of the novel concludes with Rikus completing his task, yeah I know, coinkidink, but definitely a good read.


Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is actually the first novel I ever read as well as the quickest. Being a child, wizardry is a respected entity, mainly thanks to Dragon Ball Z but that’s beside the point. Harry is first introduced to the past he never knew and the conflict that he is handed almost instantaneously which carries on to the very end of the novel. A gap was filled in my heart after I read that book. I followed with books two and three but failed four to seven due to their enormous size.


White Chapel Gods was one of the many spontaneous buys of mine. I wasn't expecting much but I needed a new book so. I surprisingly fell in love with this book as it took me back to a fictional early 18th century run down England where machines maintained most of the authority, which I found to be quite interesting.

There was a book that all the ladies were talking about. This book acted as a brain washing catastrophic wake up call that books can actually be compared to crack. I picked up Twilight and literally could not put it down. Was it glued you ask? No. Was it like taped or something? Yeah, no sorry. I could not take my eyes off these pages as Stephanie Meyer mesmerized me with the vampire aspect which had me at first bite many years ago with Broker's "Dracula". The movie was poop but the book was opposite...?

Yeah.
