Here is a quick update. Michael and I are back to school and both working. Michael is still working at the preschool, which he loves and I am still at Costco.<br />
Since reading Shadow of the Hegemon I have read Shadow Puppets, Shadow of the Giant, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind all by Orson Scott Card. Also if you saw my last post I just finished Divergent. I recommend reading the Ender and Bean series but be aware it takes a lot of time. There are even some short stories that are apart of this series that I haven't read yet, but I need a break for now.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I final finish the Ender's Game series, which I loved, but was a long read. I wanted something that was quick and consuming for my next read and I found it. Divergent only took me a few days to read and it only took me that long because I have a life that needs a lot of my attention. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I really enjoyed this book. It is a lot like the Hunger Games, in the future, part of a three book series (the last one isn't out yet), and a strong girl as the main character. Plus there is a love interest. There are plans on it being a movie series after they finish the Hunger Games movies, so if you want to be a head of the craze go read it now. The second book is waiting for me as I speak, so I got to go. :)</span><br />

I finished reading Ender's Shadow, technically I finished it on January 1st, but since most of it was read in 2011 I am counting it. That makes a grand total of 16 books read in 2011! This was not the goal of beating last years total of 18, but I am still happy with that number. This year I will try to beat 16 and with full time school and work I think that is a pretty good goal.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span >So for the book, I had a hard time deciding what book to read next in the Ender's world of books. For those of you who are not familiar with the series, there are actually two series in this same fantasy world and it can be read in many different orders depending on who you talk to. One follows Ender and one that follows Bean. This book is the first one that follows Bean and takes place during the same time as the last book I read Ender's Game, which follows Ender. I think I made the right choice in reading this one next, but I will update you on that after I read all of them. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span >I actually liked this book more than Ender's Game. This book gave Ender's Game more depth and gave me more understanding. I love these books and highly recommend them!</span></div>Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09551926060303791809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426273748921450244.post-68713534176389849422011-12-03T19:25:00.001-08:002011-12-04T10:02:20.983-08:00Ender's Game<a href="http://images.betterworldbooks.com/081/Ender-s-Game-9780812550702.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 244px; height: 400px;" src="http://images.betterworldbooks.com/081/Ender-s-Game-9780812550702.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">As the year is coming to an end I am becoming increasingly aware that I will not surpass my goal of reading more books this year compared to last year. Last year I read a total of 18 books and this year I have only read 15. I have a list of excuses, but mostly it boils down to I didn't allow enough time for it. I love reading. A lot. It is my get away. When I am at work or school or anywhere I can just think of the book I am reading and be somewhere else. I have been so stressed lately and I am positive that it hasn't helped that my reading has gone down. I did luckily finally pick up Ender's Game. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I have heard about this book here and there, and knew at some point I would read it. And like most books that I read, it came to me at the perfect moment. I love this book. I ate this book up like it was nothing. I knew there were sequels, but to my surprise there are so many (like 11, don't quote me on that). So, for a warning the next many blogs about books are going to be about this series. I am hooked.</div><div style="text-align: center;">For those of you who haven't read this book yet, it is about a boy named Ender. The world he lives in is far in the future after a few alien invasions had past. He is only six years old when he is chosen to go to a Battle Academy to train to beat the next alien invasion. Michael says it is a mix between Harry Potter and the Hunger Games. I would sort of have to agree. Read this book, but be prepared to read many more after.</div>Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09551926060303791809noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426273748921450244.post-32847559847340021362011-10-31T22:41:00.000-07:002011-10-31T22:50:36.006-07:00Two Balls Less<div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="Apple-style-span">Arthur got neutered last Friday.

I finished reading Fall of Giants by Ken Follett a few weeks ago. It took me along time to read it because I am so busy with work and school that my reading time has gone down to 30 minutes in bed before I go to sleep, which usually ends in about 5 minutes and me waking up 2 hours later with the book still in my hands. Also the book is 985 pages long. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span">This is the third Ken Follett's book that I have read so far and will not be my last. One of my favorite aspect of his books is how he blurs the line between good and evil. Bad people to good things and good people do bad things. It makes the books human, you can relate with the characters and the characters come alive. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span">This book was based before and during World War I, which I realized I really didn't know that much about that war. Most of the characters in the book are fictional, but all of the events in the book are factual. There are characters on all sides of the war, so you really get a full view of what happened at that time around the world. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span">I love this book and highly recommend it. Luckily this is the first of a three book series.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09551926060303791809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426273748921450244.post-66326118970694002011-09-20T16:33:00.001-07:002011-09-20T16:38:08.273-07:00New couch<div style="text-align: center;">I have had my eye on this couch at Costco for awhile, but it was just to much money.

Yes I went there about five years ago. At that time I wasn't positive what I wanted to be when I grew up so I thought it would be a great idea to just go for a degree in business. With a business degree you can do almost anything. The problem was I hated business. Not to offend anyone with a business degree, it is just not for me. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I took some time off went to community college (again) until it hit me one day. I want to be a Biomedical-engineer. I know most people don't wake up one day and want to be a Bio-engineer, but I did and to think back I probably always did but was to scared or not aware what the degree was. </div><div style="text-align: center;">It has been about two years since I realized it and it has been an up hill battle to get where I am now. Apparently it is really hard to get into this program and they don't let anybody that just wants it in. I am not sure if it was because I have been to four different colleges already or that I have changed my major three times, but they didn't want me for the last three semesters that I applied. Even though I graduated Pima Community College with three associates degrees in the honors program. This semester they final let me in, probably because they were tired of hearing from me.</div><div style="text-align: center;">So starting Monday I will have six classes and about a 30 hour a week job. I will need to fit my family in there as much as possible for my sanity and of course homework. It should be interesting and crazy, but I feel really good. I feel like my life is going in a good direction and I have the most amazing husband I could ask for by my side. </div>Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09551926060303791809noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426273748921450244.post-11283798661498132022011-08-08T17:05:00.000-07:002011-08-08T17:21:19.502-07:00Not pictures of kitties!<div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" >I know that there have been just a ton of Arthur pictures on here lately, but can you blame me he is so cute! This post is a little break from that. We have had a few great storms down here in Tucson lately. We always love a storm because we don't have ac and it is soooooooooooo hot! A storm really cools it down plus it always looks really neat. Here are some pictures before and after storms. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;">

Almost every book I read was recommended by someone, this allows me to have someone to talk to about it when I am done reading. I don't feel like I am fully done with a book until I talk about it. Michael is amazing about this, he lets me talk through each book when I read it. He asks questions and we discuss.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am not sure why it took me so long to pick this book up, but once I did I had to force myself to put it down. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This book is a true story about a professor who is dying and his student. The professor teaches life lessons until the end, every Tuesday. It is a sad and inspiring book. It's a quick read and I defiantly recommend this one. </div>Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09551926060303791809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426273748921450244.post-41587209244572245732011-06-19T22:36:00.000-07:002011-06-19T22:50:16.373-07:00Ape House<a href="http://0.tqn.com/d/bestsellers/1/0/r/C/-/-/ape_house.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 393px; height: 600px;" src="http://0.tqn.com/d/bestsellers/1/0/r/C/-/-/ape_house.JPG" border="0" alt="" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Ape House was written by the same author as Water for Elephants, Sara Gruen.
