Hello. "Here's a quote." Maybe I'll put a real quote in later. I realized I like reading memoirs. Like...LOL the obvious one, "Memoirs of a Geisha", which was AMAZING. It's long and long and long, but I think it was really beautiful. All that detail...Every time I read it, I see a little bit more. :)
I read a memoir recently, "Paper Daughter" by M. Elaine Mar, and it's about herself, Elaine, and her journey to the United States, and how life was like for her in a Cantonese family. I thought it was really interesting - it was really...real. LOL.
It was just her childhood, and little memories and tokens kept from her past. Her family worked at a restaurant, and a lot of the story revolved around that. I say story, but this is someone's life! And I really like that. I'm not really a fantasy girl...I've tried, honestly!!!, to read Harry Potter and Inkheart, multiple times, but I just can't get through it.
Especially Inkheart. Each time, I read up to page 100, and tell myself how interesting it is. But...it really wasn't interesting. I thought the cover was so pretty, and JENNIFER WHY CANT YOU FINISH THIS STORY?!?!? Haha, but yeah, it just wasn't my type (of book. teehee.)
:) I like reading about real life stories and the stuff people go through in their lives. I like knowing that things happen, haha!
No quote today. Okay, maybe one, since I like them haha!
"If I had only known, I would have been a locksmith."
-Albert Einstein
