"a reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. a man who never reads lives only one." ~George R.R. Martin (yes george!)

and living only one perspective just seems like a waste to me! 

i sweaaaar there is nothing like a good book, an actual GOOD BOOK!!!! the way the words bounce around in your brain and end up transporting you into an entire universe will never cease to amaze me. i am HOOKED. this year i challenged myself to read 60 books (originally 50 but it's may and i'm already over halfway!) so if you are curious about the books that i have been running through like an animal, they're all below. orrrr checkout my goodreads account by clicking the beautifully illustrated g icon underneath.
