I always said that once I was finished with school I would read for fun. I get to choose the books and read at my own pace, freedom!!! Well yesterday I took a very therapeutic trip to Powell's. I went directly to my favorite room, the purple room. It has all the great books, Soc stuff my fav. I'm pretty broke but I managed to find 2 books that seemed pretty interesting and cheap. I will give the full review of each after I read them.
