I was totally going to buy a book but I'm going to buy groceries instead. Yay being sensible.
Today is the roommate's girlfriend's birthday and I hope they don't plan on partying because they did that sunday and I got no sleep and if that's what they plan to do I'm going to leave in a huff and give everyone dirty looks.

I bought two books yesterday
I've started one and so far it's brilliant. Funny in a slightly pretentious way, the best kind of funny (after bum and willy jokes)

what were you going to buy?

Actually, after reading the summary, it looks shit. My book, not yours.

Your book looks pretty awesome!

still looks shit
I don't like that she's venturing out of her typical mode of writing
I mean, she can, but this book has nothing to do with the other books in this series

I know nothing of the genre
but it seems to me you should be adventurous...at worst you could grow mushrooms in it

She typically writes very good stories, had 5 books about real relationships
then she snuck in a book that was about a girl that fell in love with a dude and he died in the ocean and when she got older she went back to the place and he came out of the ocean but couldn't leave the immediate area around her beach house
it pissed me off because I didn't know it was supernatural, I don't like books like that, she has other books that are like that, she should've classified that book in with the supernatural ones, and this will likely be the same.

hmm
almost sounds like she needs a different name to publish some books under

I know I'm being dumb, But she has this series of books, this is the 8th.
The first 5 books were all connected, the sixth wasn't, the seventh was.
They aren't specifically a series, but they all have connections within the characters, the books are all named with a single word.
Why slap something different and not connected at all into it? Especially when you are already writing three other series of books?

this makes complete sense
If you're going to theme books, theme the contents, too

Well, I've tried the "saying 'can you please keep it down'" method
as well as the "Shouting CAN YOU TURN THAT DOWN?" method
because all that gets is the "This is my god damned house" response.

So, at least if I leave, I have a chance of being able to sleep.
