Day 17: Shortest book you've read.
Mile 81 by Stephen King
At 80 pages, its more of a novella, but its the shortest thing that I can remember reading recently, and I really don’t want to talk about how much I hated it. This was a HUGE letdown for me. I think for King, it was an effort to get something out really quick knowing that his fans were anticipating the release of 11/22/63 and would eat that one up. I still...

Day 16: Longest book you've read.
The Stand by Stephen King
I think that I used this one already, but I’m using it again. It took me forever to get through this book. That was partly because I had to keep stopping and starting, but it was over 1,000 pages long so it was a pretty hefty read. And still one of my favorites.

Day 15: First Chapter Book you can remember...
The Music of Dolphins by Karen Hesse
I remember reading this book a million times when I was younger. I still have it in my book case somewhere, all torn up I’m sure. It was easy to read, the print was huge and it was written in incomplete sentences, but I still loved it.
Honestly, I’m sure that I read a chapter book before this (this was published in 1996, so I was 7), but this...

Day 14: Book whose main character you want to...
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Oh, Jamie. *swoon* I seriously fell in love with Jamie Fraser, the main character in this book. This book was so fantastic and if I could switch places with Claire and have Jamie be my husband I think I would. Aside from Jamie, this book was fantastic, he’s just an added bonus :]

Day 13: Book whose main character is most like...
And once again, I’m coming up empty here. I can think of certain books where I have certain qualities of certain characters, like smartass-ness and various other things, but I can’t think of a certain character that I’m really like or is like me or anything. So, for the second day in a row, nothing.

Day 12: Book that is most like your life.
Okay, I have no book for this. There is no book that I’ve read that is like my life, because I have a pretty boring life, other than the random crazy things that happen to me. I think that maybe I could write a book about certain events in my life.
But, I have yet to read a book that is anything like my life.

I have never been so discouraged about my life.
I want to move out, I want to be with the person I love, I want to do a million things and I need a full time job because I need money to do all these things and this all seems completely impossible.
