So Many Books, So Little Time

Ever had so many books that you want to read that you don't really know where to start? That's the dilemma that I am facing at the moment.

My solution: read more than one at a time. Although this tends to get me confused on some of the plots. It takes a page or two to get back into the story.

I am almost finished with one of the books. Neil Gaiman wrote stories such as Coraline and Stardust. He has another book that is a Newbery Medal winner; The Graveyard Book. This is the tale of a boy called Nobody Owens. When he was just an infant a man came into his home and killed his entire family. With luck the baby was able to escape to the graveyard behind the house. Ghosts of the graveyard discover him there and decide to protect and raise the baby as one of them. Nobody, Bod for short, grows up learning the tricks of ghost behavior. Will this ability be able to save him when the murderer returns for him? You'll just have to pick it up and find out for yourself, it's full of twists and turns.

SoGoPro recommended another Book; Twilight. You would not believe the lengths I had to go to to get this book. Unfortunately it was not in my campus library so I went to the local bookstore. I couldn't find it anywhere so I asked if they had it in stock. Of course the guy though I was talking about the Stephanie Meyer version. They had to order it for me and a couple of days later it arrived. I am only like thirty pages into this one, but so far it intrigues me. It kind of reminds me of reading about like Ed Gein or something. There is an undertaker and he starts messing with the dead bodies. A teenage boy discovers what he is doing when he sees the man disturbing the new grave of his father. With the help of a girl he is beginning to uncover the evidence he needs against the undertaker.

This one is a good read too but try not to get into my situation with too many books.
