WHAT I DO WHEN I READ THE BOOK

I'll try to do a "What I do when I read the book" post for every book I read.

So, what do I do when I read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix for the hundredth time? Well, I eat things that are probably bad for my health. Like this:

And it's great.

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU

Since Christmas is coming up I thought I could write about which books I've put on my wish list. I won't really say that much about them though because it's pretty late here in Sweden and I'm tired and want to go to bed although I know I won't for another couple of hours.

William L. Shirer - Rise and Fall of the Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany

I can't even describe how much I want this book. It's essential reading for anyone who is as interested in WW2 as me. My school library had this book and I always read it during breaks or when I was cutting class which happened a lot during my senior year because we had so many bad teachers that I just couldn't deal with. Regardless, I hope I get it. My grandfather bought this book ages ago but don't want to lend it to me because it's his "on-going project". That sucks. But I do want my own copy.

Linda Skugge - Fittstim

Linda Skugge is a Swedish author and journalist and people either love her immensely or they hate her in a "I want to put a bullet in her and watch her slowly die" kind of way (OK, so I totally wanted to make that sentence longer and funnier and whatnot, but I'm just too tired). Whatever. Obviously, I love her immensely and even if I didn't I'd want Fittstim because who wouldn't want to own a book with a cover like that? I won't try to translate the title though. It's a bit too vulgar.

Chuck Klosterman - Downtown Owl

Seriously, Chuck Klosterman is the man. He can make any subject interesting. I mean, he wrote an entire book about metal (an genre I never listen to) and I just couldn't put it down. The title, Fargo Rock City, wasn't good though.

Nic Sheff - Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines and David Sheff - Beautiful Boy: A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction

Normally I try to stay away from books that Oprah recommends but I thought this sounded pretty interesting and anyway, Nic Sheff is hot. That's a good reason to read the book, no? And I sort of liked that both the son and the Dad had written books about Nic's drug addiction. Nice to get the Dad's point of view as well. But most likely, I won't really like these books.

Rosalind Wiseman – Queen Bees and Wannabes

Mean girls was based on this book and I sort of love that movie even though I don't want to but it's just funny and so mean and Rachel McAdams is just so good in it. The ending is way too cheesy though.

Eminem - The way I am

I've been a fan of Eminem forever, so I'm really looking forward to this book. I'll probably get it because my mother is a big fan too.

I also want Santa to bring me these:
Oscar Wilde – The Importance of Being Earnest

Curtis Sittenfield – Man of My Dreams

Nick Hornby – Slam

Ben Elton – Chart Throb and Dead Famous

Michelle Magorian – Cuckoo in the Nest

Douglas Adams - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Donna Tartt – The Secret History

Joyce Carol Oates – Blonde
