THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: Name a favorite book you’d take to the beach.
I Bought the Following Book(s) This Past Week…
Okay, so these are actually just the books I’ve bought this month. One time was in preparation for next month’s series binge I’ll be embarking on, and today’s buys were thanks to me finishing season 2 of Star Wars Rebels which reminded me that I fell behind on my Star Wars books. For those of you who weren’t aware – I’m a seriously hardcore Star Wars fan, like an embarrassing amount. I have to read every new book that is released, excluding the EU because that would just get me excited about stories that aren’t considered canon and I can’t do that to myself. Any other Star Wars fans out there who understand my crazy nerd self?

Sweet mother of God, this is what happens when you become a single adult with a full-time paying job – you spend all of your money on books.
I need to get a life.
Name a Favorite Book to Take to the Beach.
Hmmm, I don’t think I have an answer for this one. I would just take whatever book is next on my TBR. That’s the way I roll!
What books have you bought this month? What book would you take to the beach? Are you a huge Star Wars nerd like me? Or do you prefer Star Trek? There’s not right or wrong answer!
Well there is, but I won’t be upset with you for picking the wrong one. I enjoy Star Trek too, but it’s just not in the same league. 😉
