Abandoned Books and Soap Operas

Picking new books on a budget is how I imagine adopting a child would be like.

This Christmas, I received a book that I already owned and a shirt that was too big. No big deal, I could still take those items back and switch them out for something different. So tonight, my mom, my sister, and I went to Target and I got to find items to switch the book and the shirt for. Lo and behold, I found myself in the book isle.

I was in heaven just being there.

So I was walking up and down the aisles. And up and down again.

I couldn't decide! There were so many books that looked good! I wanted to pick a book or two that I had already read or I knew that I liked the author. That helped a little bit, but not much.

I felt like I was abandoning all of the other books that couldn't come home with me.

Well, eventually I found these two books (above and below). That's right, I indulged in the romance genre and I'm very happy about this. It's almost Valentine's Day (not really, but it's one of the upcoming holidays) so I find this to be appropriate.

I don't think that I've reviewed these two books yet, so you can look forward to those in the future.

Today, I started school again after two weeks of winter break. My French group is almost done with our Soap Opera. As soon as we film part three and I get it edited, I'll upload it to YouTube and then post it here. I feel like it has turned out quite well, considering how much we procrastinated...

Thanks for reading!
