Reading #2

Hey! Its me again! A couple of weeks ago I finished a very good book. This book is called Tuesdays with Morrie. It is an inspiring nonfiction story about a professor (Morrie), his student (Mitch), and the heartwarming conversations they share. In this story Morrie is slowly dying from ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) and with the last few moments he has left, he wants to teach the world about life...from experience. He shares these moments every Tuesday with his former student Mitch and they talk about subjects such as Death, Aging, Money, Marriage, Culture, and Love. This was a very inspiring story, and even though it was 200 pages, it was one of the best books I have ever read. By reading this book you will question your values and realize how precious life is.

Happy Reading

oooh I want to read that book. I've heard of it before.

*sigh*

Everyone else is reading books with actual meanings, with meassages about life in them, and I'm just reading my fantasy/sci-fi/romance/whatever adventures that are meant to entertain, not to teach :) I feel so left out....but I'm definitely going to finish A Darkling Plain before I pick up Tuesdays With Morrie :)

P.S. So Matt turned into a carrot. And ate a slug with cheesecake in it. And then Pancho's evil twin was eaten by the pit of evil fire.
