.

Yeah, finished that. Donating it. I wont start any new books (except library books) until January. Anyway, last thoughts.

1. She probably shouldn't refer to Hinduism and Buddhism as "wacky"


2. She needs to learn that Africa isn't one country.


3. "It hadn't occured to me that the Indonesian government would be anything less than delighted to host me in their country for just as long as I pleased to stay" (73) It hadn't occured to me that she would sound more ignorant in the Bali section, than in the India one.


4. That bribing the guy to extend her visa kind of grossed me out. Especially when she writes about Yudhi being deported from the States.


5. What is this sex infection she gets that is so painful?


6. "If you need help making stiff your banana, I can give you medicine."

There was a book in the Goodreads giveaways that had this in it's description: Warning: This title is sexually explicit with mild bdsm. If you like it rough and spanky, this may be for you.

SO true.

This dog would make a great Loup in The Book of Lost Things.

Fifty Shades Darker (finished)

1. I imagined the sex scene being filmed to this and cannot see it as a R-rated scene. It must be NC-17 and in slow motion.


2. So true of Ana


3. Ana reads Rebecca. There are a lot of similiarities. I loved that book. One chapter made me cry.


4. Too much "Laters baby"!


5. I had a lot of fun "annotating" it. I even created a character. Whenever Ana mentioned her inner goddess (quite often), I would write about my inner demon. "My inner demon spins its head around 360 degrees", "my inner demon vomits blood", etc. I even made drawings. I even added colour to some of them. I hope whoever gets these books from the Good Will I will be donating them to, will enjoy my notes.


6. Mac and cheese is not nursery food, Ana, you snob!


7. It gets very victim blamey often.


8. Butt drawer


9. It's kind of annoying that they always have to listen to songs that have something to do with the situation (though, there are songs I want to look up). Can't they have some random shit? Can't Christian listen to some polka or something?


10. Dr. Flynn probably shouldn't be talking to Ana. He should have made a referral to a couples counselor or something.


11. Dr. Flynn, obsessed with the phrase "breast-beating"


12. Why does Christian have to have a good singing voice? Can't he have a couple of quirks that make him less perfect at everything?


13. Anal virgin


14. Do people really open and close their mouths like fish when they are shocked?

Motown Encyclopedia

1. Maybe I'm not the type of person who can sit down and read an encyclopedia. So I'm skimming.


2. It's sad about Florence Ballard.


3. John Carpenter has an entry, because the Christine soundtrack was released by Motown.

Eat Pray Love

1. "... the same African men...", NO! Not the same African men. Some bits of this book make me angry too.


2. Ice Cream of the Crispy Saint


3. Deutsche vita


4. I do like the paragraphs about her fascination with Italian though


5. This is pretty.


6. Cream puffs.

Need to make some good selections at the library.
