When I was in juvi I read a lot of grisham. Also read this book smack, can’t remember the author, was really good. I started the secret but gave up on it.

Recently I been reading slave species of god. Some call it pseudo science. I also like books like 101 thing you should know how to do, or tip books. Like, 100 things you can do with vinegar,salt,pop, ect

You can always sell your books back to the school at the end of the term. They usually give you back about a third of what you paid, given it’s still pretty much unused.

1/3 is early 2000s number patty I swear its closer to 1/4 or maybe even 1/5 now.  Its mostly due to the new edition every semester hustle I think.  There is no resale value now to the book so they give you jack shit for them.  If I liked a class I keep the book for future reference now, if not I get back my peanuts.

I hate it when you get a class that makes you buy a book, and the class never really actually uses the book. I also hate it when you get a class and the teacher doesn’t actually teach you shit, they just make you read the book. Money wasting mother fuckers!!!

My trick is to wait till class has been in a month before I actually buy the book.  By then you can see if they are blowing smoke up your ass about needing it, or if their power point slides are going to be sufficient for the test.  It doesn’t always work, but can save you hundreds of dollars.  I put myself through school so every penny I can save I try to.

My favorite genre of books would be coloring books….If I could just stay inside those damn lines.

Horror is my shit for sure.I finished reading The Shining, so I can read Doctor Sleep that I asked for christmas.Im reading Son of Rosemary right now which doesn’t hold a candle to Rosemary’s baby.Classic shit right there.I’m also reading Corey Taylor’s new book, “A funny thing happened on the way to heaven”, which is pretty good.Corey talking about his different experiences with the paranormal, which I can really relate to, having a weird experience myself as a child in Long beach.He also talks about the recording of Slipknots third LP, Subliminal Verses Vol.3, which they recorded in the haunted Houdini mansion in LA,some crazy stories that dude has.

I felt the same way about Son of Rosemary, it doesn’t so much suck it just isn’t nearly anywhere near as good as Rosemary’s Baby. The movie was dope too. The Shining is one of my favorite all time books, you’ll like Doctor Sleep, that shit was dope as fuck too.
