I love books like a fat kid loves cake
I can spend YEARS in a book store. if you ever need to get rid of me, just put me in a book store or library and im gone. forget earth, im in a new world now.
i heart reading. it is one thing i shall never tire of.

and one day, i dont care how old i am (most likely later on in life. my youth shall be spent exploring, learning, traveling) i will own a bookstore. not like a chain like borders. but i cozy one like in You've GOt Mail with meg ryan and tom hanks. i want one like the one Meg's character had. or in the book Happily Ever After by SUsan May Warren. i want that kind of bookstore. and i will have it. and it will be a dream because every day i will get lost in it. and i can meet other ppl who love books, true book lovers, like my friend Beebles (she'll kill me if she ever read this) and we shall rant and spazz over our fav books, poems, quotes, scenes, what have you. and it'll open us to new ideas and such. and i'd even have the time to write my own book or 2. i donno but i seem like after im done exploring and learning, once im ready to settle down and have a family or something, i would be ever so content with just a quaint little bookstore.
it'd also be cute to be next to a tea shop or something. i dont like coffee.

and today at borders i was super excited cus while scouring the YA section for any interesting books (i had at least 4 piled in my hand in only say...15-20 minutes) and i spotted Love Rules by Dandi Daley Mackail and i just went spazz eek exclaim 4laugh 3nodding whee whee whee mrgreen . i mean, i had been searching to buy my own copy of that book for a year or so? and everywhere i looked i couldnt find it. and then There it was before my very eyes. Squee! Sadly i wasnt able to get the 6 other books i wanted but my dearest mother did buy me that one so i was uber happy and joyful 4laugh .

i am sure if you gave me a million dollars, nearly half would go to books. (half would go to charity of some sort just cus it's another of my dreams to do that).
me + books = happy happy joy joy

like, books to me are like halo to an obsessed xbox gamer. or like hannah montana to a 10 year old. or bamboozle tickets to rock lovers (Franny is a lucky lucky kid. I am going with him next time, whether he minds or not)

anyway, i need to make a list of books i plan to read so i thought, hey. why not on gaia? so here goes. if youve heard of any do make a comment or leave a review. I'd appreciate.
in no order. just what springs to my head. i suppose i'll keep adding to it.
1. the disresputable history of frankie landau banks-E. Lockhart
2. the twilight series
3. Speak- Laurie Halse Anderson (ive read it i just want to own my own copy)
