Twilight was cool.

Twilight was cool.

I liked the movie and the books. I liked the book, Vrakluna:Origin of the Vampire better. It was more adult romance and definitely had blood in it. Shouldn't vampires actually feed on blood? I have an extra copy, hit me up or you can go to Amazon. The author's name is Benjamin G. King.

Have you ever asked yourself "What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common?" How about "Why do drug dealers still live with their moms?" Or "How is the Ku Klux Klan like a group of real estate agents?"

Fales Library: The Reason I Agree to NYU's Tuition

Every semester, those of us without scholarships, are asked to submit an enormous wad of cash to the NYU Registrar and every semester we are then allowed back into the endless halls around Washington Square where some teachers will blow our minds, some will bore us, and some will speak

Latest comment by disposablecity: A person can 100% touch the books, they have to sign in and fill out papers and see one at a time but I have gone and done this myself with several eighteenth century first editions. Commenter #2, you are an ass.

Poll: Excellent Book Turned Movie News

Excellent Book Turned Movie News

OMG. Hello, happiness! Does anyone remember the Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging books?

Reading Period

Reading Period
Books and course packets that I should be reading. (My Desk)

As much as I would like to believe that reading period really means SLEEPING period it doesn't. You shouldn't either. Unless you have no work to do you should consider cracking a book open. I'm sure there's at least ONE reading you skipped this term.
