So, I’ve been a really busy lady lately. I haven’t even gotten a chance to review Iron Man or The Orphanage which I have recently seen.
I thought I would take a minute out of my busy schedule to jot down what I am spending my some of my free time on these days. I have been working constantly it seems but have taken some time out to start reading a new book. Sharp Teeth by Toby Barlow has been keeping my attention steadily. It’s elegantly dark and just asking to be made into a movie. Not that I would actually like that because they would probably botch it. But then again, who knows. There have been exceptions to the old book-better-than-the-movie rule. The characters so far are very interesting and as a novice writer myself I really love branching out and exploring different literature and writing styles. I will definitely write a review once I am done reading it.
I have also been listening to some pretty decent music lately and have a few songs that I can’t seem to get out of my head.
I have definitely loving Santogold’s new album. I can’t seem to get the song “I’m a Lady” out of my head. The hooks and beats fit perfectly and I just can’t find a single song on the album that I don’t like. That is very rare for me because usually on Itunes I don’t buy the whole album but this time I did. I am also really loving Sons & Daughters right now too. I adore This Gift: Gilt Complex and just love Adele Bethel’s voice in general.
So that’s basically it. Oh and I might have found a house. I am going to take pictures of it this weekend. It’s so cute and there are huge renovations being made to it right now before I can move in this fall. It’s not a definate yet but it’s a solid hopefully!
