Chelsea @moffittjc The Dark Tower series is also one of my (and my mom's) favorites of Kings.. and I love how he throws in references to other characters in other novels, too. A girl ended up making a huge chart to show every reference, it's pretty mindblowing.

I recently started reading the book "The Reason I Jump" by Naoki Higashida, which is a question-and-answer format novel of him explaining his autism to the world at large, mainly through the help of a computer and author David...

Chelsea @JudyEv The title actually always peaked my interest, but I always had other books to read and I never got around to checking it out. I'm glad you decided to check it out at someone else's request :)

Chelsea @Drosophila Definitely! I grew up watching a few of the episodes, then got the collection as a Christmas gift years later, and it's still one of my favorites! Pretty funny too.

Don't think about what can happen tomorrow. Don't think about what can happen in a month. Don't think about what can happen in a year. Just focus on the 24 hours in front of you and do what you can to get closer to where you want...

At the beginning of the month, I'd decided to take a break from drinking. It was partly stemmed from one massive Halloween celebration that had me nursing one stinking hangover. I woke up on a Saturday morning still drunk from...

Chelsea @moffittjc Haha, indeed! I treasured how long the books were actually, as I never wanted the stories to end - but ohmygoodness is it a trek to get through them, so the short stories are definitely a nice respite!

Chelsea @moffittjc That's awesome you have all of them! I'll have to add Bazaar of Bad Dreams to my every-growing list of Must Reads. I really do enjoy his books of short stories, they always have surprising twists in small packages.

Chelsea Hello Noora! Glad to see another fan of both of those :) And I love The Secret Garden too - I always associate it with A Little Princess, however, because of the movies they made in the 90's lol

Chelsea I do love a good fairy tale! Have you ever heard of Faerie Tale Theatre? It was produced by Shelly Duvall and is a large collection of fairy tales performed by some pretty big names (but back in the 80's!) like Jeff Goldblum and Billy Crystal (The Big Bad Wolf...
