I just finished reading book four in the children’s book series Septimus Heap. It’s like a poor mans Harry Potter. But since it’s been almost 2 years since the last HP came out, I’ll take what I can get at this point. I also chose a childrens book because I was looking for a little light reading while trying to do all of my schoolwork for the trip before I go and nothing says light reading like wizards, dragons and the place where all times do meet.
Sadly, there was only one sentence I found funny enough to quote from this book:
“A bath was not a rats favorite way of spending time-he couldn’t remember when he had last had one-but when a rat is off to the Palace, he has to make an effort”.
Yep, that’s it. A line about a rat visiting the princess who felt he needed a bath.
Confession: This book took me so little time to read that I started a new book yesterday. And while I got a lot of new adult books for my birthday, I decided to go with back to back children’s books so as to not tax the brain too much. I’d hate to do too much thinking. The new book is about the land of imagination called Foo and takes place in Oklahoma! And, it’s really funny and has many funny quotes so far. Stay tuned.
Unrelated PS-I leave for Europe in two days! Who’s ready for that? Not me.
