Ok, so book 3 got minorly delayed because I decided to read a book for some background and hopefully some insight into my thesis topic. So, I figured, since I was reading the whole book, this would count for book 3. So, book 3 was "CyberShock" by Winn Schwartau. It was really quite interesting. It didn't give me a whole lot of information to use in my writing, but at the very least it made me think about some things and made me look at some things a little differently. The book made a lot of good points. Unfortunately it's also about 8 years old now, so while a lot of the basics can remain true, there are other things that are slightly different. All in all, it was a very interesting read though.

So, coming up in my next post is what was originally meant to be book 3, but turned into book 4 instead.

Ok, I keep doing something wrong and clicking on pictures or books and screwing up my post. :-(

So, book 2 was "Undead and Unworthy" by MaryJanice Davidson. I really enjoy this series of books. It's hardly a serious sort of book, in fact, that's the reason I like them, and it's also the reason I picked up the first book to begin with (it is called Undead and Unwed). The title was just too entertaining not to pick it up and at least read the back, and when I read that it was about a woman who is obsessed with shoes and becomes the vampire queen, well... now how could I possibly resist! Betsy is such a fun character, and in fact, the books are just that, fun to read. I've read some mediocre reviews of this book, but I have to say that I enjoyed it just as much as the previous ones. I love it when I read books that I just don't want to put down. Now, if you notice, there's a pair of shoes in that left hand picture, and those are the newest addition to the collection, while I'm not sure if Betsy would be proud or not (seeing as they're hardly big designer shoes), I think they're cute, so that's good enough for me ;-)

And look at that, I'm 2/2 for my photo project to go along with the book challenge. Of course, I'm only 2 books in, and there's another 48 to go, but if I keep at my current pace, I'll be at book 50 probably around Christmas, but we'll see how many I'm up to come July 2009. So far, it's been fun to keep up with the challenge set for myself.

And last but not least, book 3, which I'll probably start on Monday is: "From Dead to Worse" by Charlaine Harris. Yet another series of books that I was initially drawn to because of the entertaining title.
