Uhhh,

I'm re-reading my stock reports, because they're due tonight and I want to make sure they look okay before I send them to my picky instructor.

I'm reading Stone of Tears by Terry Goodkind. (Sword of Truth Series, 'tis kick-ass.)

I finished the "The Crown of Columbus". I wasn't that thrilled with it.
So now I'm reading "The Perks of Being a Wallflower", again.

It's about a college professor who has to write a paper on Christopher Columbus. So she does a whole bunch of research on him and ends up finding his lost diary in which leads her on an adventure. The whole while she's pregnant and has drama with her unborn childs father, and she's struggling to raise her teenage son who's become uncontrollable. That's basically the gist of it.

It does doesn't it? I had such high hopes, but it just didn't hold my interest all the way through. I thought it spent a little too much time on the minor details that it just seemed to drag on. :/

Sounds like that book I'm reading... "The End of the World as we know it". No real story to it, really... Just a guy and his life. He meets a girl and it get flipped around... xD It keeps me interested for a few chapters, then a bit of chapters after that bores the hell out of me. x3

Awe, it sucks when that happens. Though I'm sure it's hard to write a story that sucks in the reader 100% of the time.
That's what I like about "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". That book I can read front to back in one sitting.
