Loves:
My newest book obsession is Dean Koontz. I've retired Toni Morrison and fellow Black authors for a bit and decided to explore more of the thriller/mystery genre. I adore Koontz's overall story lines but his writing leaves a lot to be desired for the true literary bluffs. He tends to overwrite using lots of fluff (I actually believe he writes with a thesaurus in his lap) while dragging the back story which can leave you annoyed with the protagonist but the reader is soon rewarded for sticking it out with a courageous tale of good triumphing over evil. Based on Amazon reviews his older novels are a treat, so for my next trip to Borders I'll be indulging in:
So this evening I had my Zune on shuffle and Kanye West's "Flashing Lights" plays and I thought, "When is he coming back?" The media and public alike got what they wanted when he left the spotlight to work on his next album and even I was becoming sick of his publicity fueled antics including his tacky stripper girlfriend/escort. But as the beat knocked and I pressed the back button three more times, I realized that I missed him. Musically. Hopefully for his next release I'll get to see him in concert. None of my friends accept Kanye like I do, so I'd be alone attending his critically acclaimed shows.
Laughs:
This made my uterus scream. Children are scary.
Oh yeah, "Lamilton Taeshawn" is REAL:
Christmas List:
I never got into the re-emerging wedge trend but these Jeffrey Campbell Rox Wedge booties are the shit! I think my Gucci wallet might can flex for these babies...
