My Life, in Books p1 : Mary's in India

So maybe listing the books that have influenced me and what I did or did not like about them will help me figure out where I want to go with my own stuff. It's likely that this will backfire but I'm doing it anyway.

Twilight chapters 1-12 )

Saw “Pineapple Express” with my sister. It was hilarious but very, very violent. I’m talking there’s like fifteen minutes of people shooting at each other and hitting each other with pipes and stuff. A little gross in places and for some reason, grossness bothers me more than violence and I have my own little quirks about what I think of as gross. I mean, Seth Rogan gets a piece of his ear shot off, and finds the piece and tries to stick it back on and I thought that was funny, but I almost threw up at the thing with the kitty litter, which some people might not have even *noticed*.

They showed the trailer for “Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist” and um…it looks like a good movie but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be much like the book. They’ll probably make all his gay bandmates straight and stuff. It looks like they've expanded the role the drunken friend played. In the book, she plays a bit role and her impact is felt, rather than seen.

back to writing, if I manage to stay awake.
