Hi everyone. Sorry for neglecting my bookish duties. There has been a lot going on in my world and I would like to believe it is starting to slow down.
Can you believe that in the last 2 weeks I haven't read a single book? That being said I have plenty of stuff to share.
For example. I have turned a few more middle school teachers and school staff onto the hilarity that is Spanking Shakespeare by Jake Wizner. This book is hilarious. It is about a boy named Shakespeare who is in Sr. year of high school and has to write his biography-that is what the book is. Turns out that Shakespeare is good at writing and hilarious at retelling his life, as well as biblical stories and more. So I definitely suggest checking that book out from your nearest library or putting it on your next Chapters/Amazon order. The fun part? Well, aside from the story, is that in 2012 this will become a Nickelodeon movie. The even funner part? In the book Shakespeare has to write his own obituary-and now he can write yours too! Go here.
In other fun news September 19th is International Talk Like A Pirate Day- look forward to my intended post in pirate-ese on fun pirate books.
Also, I love second hand book stores largely because of their uniqueness and charm. This can also be said of independent book stores too. So I loved this article on book stores by the San Francisco Chronicle that highlighted the different kitty mascots of the different book stores in the city!
