If only the title had warned me...

I got to chapter 5 of "The Dirty Parts of the Bible" before I deleted it off my Kindle. I'm fairly liberal when it comes to artistic content, and it wasn't dirty per se, I've definitely had to put down worse, but it was 1st person narrated by a hormone-driven 20 year old boy. blech. The story itself was pretty interesting and promising, but not enough to put up with the narrators fantasizing and semi-torrid confessions. oh well. I feel like every summer I try to exercise my grown-up-ness and venture into the world of adult books. And every summer it fails. Guess I got it taken care of early this year, at least. Back to young adult and classic novels I go!

  1. Hahaha!! That's funny. I hate it when books don't turn out the way I think they should, or as the title implies. And can I just say that I loved The King's Speech. Being the bad girl that I am, I did NOT bleep out the million F bombs, and I don't think it hurt one bit. It reminded me of Hot Fuzz where it's almost funny. In this case, however, I think it actually added to the movie. But yeah, that's me. You're doing great with the hair! Keep it up!! Now....time to schedule my haircutting appointment.
