You guys know I like Tracy Chevalier, right? Oh, maybe not. Well I've read all her books, a nice art lesson mixed with romance and history. Girl With a Pearl Earring? Scarlett Johansson? Anyways, I just finished her newest book, Burning Bright. Well last time I checked it was her newest book. That was like a year ago, when it wasn't available at the library for the longest time. So I enjoyed it. They all seem to be aimed at 12 year olds, only they're rated R. Like Pan's Labyrinth, or the Fall. This just made me really want to go to London. I've wanted to go there for awhile, but I'm drawn there even more now. It's so completely steeped in history, decades of kingdoms and opium and knights and whores and artists. All that fog and all those churches. All those pubs and everything. Notting Hill, 28 Days Later, Sweeney Todd. I decided that once I have $5000, I'm going to head out there and live off of cereal and chips and beef jerky for a week. And one day I will splurge and have Shepherd's Pie and Tea and shit. Well after that break of "easy reads" (AKA books written in this century) I think I'm going to go back to classic literature.
