- Okay, so it's a giftbook, but I really wanted the little cowboy boot charm. There will be book books that will fit into this category, but I... really wanted that charm...
Graphic Novel/Comic Book: Ghost World by Daniel Clowes
- I always thought that Enid reminded me a bit of my sister. In the comic, her birthday is 12/23/1979, so she's 5 days younger than my sister.
- David Clowes, lol.
Book with more than 500 pages: The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
- Could have read this after Christmas.
- See, it isn't difficult to put a mixed race family into a story.
- OMG, Doughboy.
- It would be lovely if this were made into a movie. It would probably be whitewashed though.
- I haven't read the Percy Jackson books, he must have made the Greek gods less rapey.
- I love how confident Sadie is.
- Kept imagining Carter as a younger Donald Glover. Nut was Lupita Nyong'o. Bast was Zoe Saldana. For some reason, when I was dreamcasting Sobek (well, his voice), Zach Galifinakis jumped into my head. WTF?
- The Elvis bit was interesting. I was going to write about it some more, but I'm too tired. Ugh.
