  1. Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa.

    Trying another Chatwin book, eh?
    Perhaps we can debate something about the origin of a dinosaur egg?

    I wish you luck, my friend. Meanwhile, I won't read it and pretend that I have, just like I did in class.

    Is that the summer reading? I ordered some more books online yesterday too! And there's a huge stack from when we took AV to the used bookstore. But I secretly want more books. MORE, I tell you! More!

    ...I'm going to the Used bookstore this weekend. I'm gonna trade some crappy books in, like those Shopoholic books I can't believe I own. Recommend to me some poetry books for the summer. I command you!

    I want humor/nature books. Not as voicy as Hoagland, but as accessible. And as soft, as say...Vandenberg. Go!

    List me 5, and they'll be the first thing I have sent to my new address on County Road 25. What are good movin' to the country books?
