Book talk

I talk a lot about books! So if that is not interesting to you don't read this blog post! (your welcome for telling you)

In case you've noticed there have been some changes to my favorite books and favorite board game's lists. Tzolk'n has taken the lead on my board games list mostly due to that I have only played  that board game for the last while. And the other thing is is that the Beyonders Series has taken 5th place. Really great series but not my favorite. While I'm on the topic of my lists you may have noticed you can't click to go to a article about the thing on either of these items. This is because it's not working the way it use to and I don't know how to do it know. And continuing the topic of books I have been reading the Ender's Game Series. I have also been reading the Shadow's Series (Same series just in Bean's prospective. I have read the first of both and 1.5 and 1.6 of the Ender's Game Series. I stop reading the series to read the third book in the 13th Reality Series. I just got started on that yesterday night and I'm now on page 100. Really enjoying that series so far. I can already tell that that series is going to be in my favorite books list. By the way I only put books (series) on there that I've finished. And if there is only one book than good for them. But that is why you don't see Ender's Game or Ender's Shadow on there yet. Now there is a lot of good books out there that I have not read yet so don't judge me on what I put on there. For example I have not read the Harry Potter series yet. (I'm sorry, OK) I have read Divergent though. Love the plot line but there is just a bit more romance then I like so that's why that series is not on there. Oh, Septimas Heap kinda by passes the read whole series rule. (just so you know). Also there are a lot of great books that I haven't finished reading the series yet. For example Jinx is a great book. But the whole series isn't out yet. The 2nd book is coming out in 2014 (almost there!). You also may have noticed that Savvy got replaced by The Candy Shop War series. Just maybe. The other development has been that the #1 spot might just be taken by the Books Of Umber series. I love that series and I might decide that it's my favorite. (By the way thank you Compton for showing me that series(sorry for probably spelling his name wrong)). Well, I think that's it for this book talk. I might do another one of these in the next 6 or 7 months. One of my favorite things to do is talk about my favorite books. I love suggesting good books to people. Like a few weeks ago(for you, a few days ago for me) I got my friend to read Candy Shop War. And by the way some time I might start doing book reviews. That would be fun. Instead of just telling which is which I can actually tell you what I like about it. But don't worry I'll try and keep away from spoilers. Well, I hope that this post qualifies for a lengthy post that I promised you last week. Huh, just notices that by the time you see this Christmas will have already gone by. Well, Happy Christmas!

Whole 2 months aye?

A whole two months. Wow. Well any way Christmas is almost here. Yippe! By the way a thought just popped in my head: isn't 'any way' one word. Let's check. Anyway. Any-way. Huh, looks like it can be spelled in any of those ways. Another thought is is that shouldn't spelt be a... huh it is a word. So does that mean spelled and spelt mean the same thing. Can you use them interchangeably. Even though I have been working on my typing skills almost everyday in computer class it seems that my speed has gotten a little slower... maybe. It's probably just that I'm writing a blog post instead of words that are already in front of me. Let's test.


*2 minutes later*

Well any way I got a 54 wpm typing speed with 16 errors so I have an adjusted speed of 46 wpm. So since last time I did a typing test and showed you the adjusted wpm comparing it to my new score I got 3 wpm more. Pretty decent improvement. Well in this time period I have gotten an email address. Yeah. But just in case your wondering I'm not switching to a different blog. I'm keeping this one.


P.S. Posting something next Sunday. An actual lengthy post.
