[Miscellaneous] Book Haul Spine Poetry — May 2015

1 Comment

Miscellaneous is the tagline to store random posts that don’t really belong elsewhere. They may involve tags, awards, challenges, and other book blogging nonsense.

What’s Miscellaneous Today?
Book Haul Spine Poetry — May 2015

Why hello there Book Outlet Mothers Day Sale. How fitting that my old credit card is expiring this month (basically after I haul these books). Also, both of these poems are terrible.

Since everyone seems to love their white backgrounds, I figured I’d try to get with the times. Behold my makeshift 8.5×11 white paper shenanigan LOL.

All book titles referenced below link to their respective Goodreads page.

This Week’s Theme:
Top Ten Authors I’d Love To Meet

Initial Thoughts:

This could turn out to be a fun topic in exposing bloggers to their inner Annie Wilkes (of Stephen King fame). For those who don’t know, she’s a “kind” soul in the Misery novel who’s obsessed with the protagonist, an author (go figure), until he writes something she doesn’t approve of. Cue crazy, villainous bananas. I mean, I wouldn’t torture said author the way Annie did but maybe I’d hide them away in a basement with only a pad of paper and pen, food delivered often enough, give them hope by letting a tiny ray of sunlight through a barred window—wow, I am not as crazy as these words seem. (Although I apologize for nothing.)

This isn’t really a love to meet anymore than a day of necessary tomfoolery. Necessary.
