I thought it had been nearly ten days since my last post, but it\u2019s only been a week and a day \u2013 still pretty close to ten days, but not exactly the same.<\/o:p><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A few days ago I finished reading James Dashner<\/a>\u2019s The Maze Runner<\/a> (I realize that, based on the number of posts that mention him, I must sound like a Dashner<\/a> addict, which I\u2019m not). Amazing book! But such a cruel end to the story. What kind of author leaves the reader on such a gut-wrenching ending? I mean, I definitely want to read his second Maze Runner<\/a> book, but I\u2019d rather not have to go through another ending like that for a while.<\/o:p><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So in the meantime I\u2019ve finally picked up Brandon Mull<\/a>\u2019s Fablehaven 2: Rise of the Evening Star<\/a>. Haha, having read the first book, I understand the title of the second one. Which means I can pretty well guess what the book is about (I\u2019m only at chapter four right now). I also began reading The People of Sparks<\/a> which is the second Book of Ember<\/a>. Not yet sure what to think of it, but reading the whole book will tell.<\/o:p><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Anyway, I don\u2019t have much else going on right now. I\u2019ve been growing some mint plants since summer of last year. I started them from seeds, and while they\u2019re growing fine, I can understand all the internet sites that mentioned how much better it is to just purchase a pre-grown plant. My mint plants are no more than a foot tall at most and I\u2019m debating what to do about them. I figure they might strengthen and such during this upcoming summer. Well, that\u2019s the hope anyway. I\u2019d like to make use of them \u2013 take them out of the plastic bag that helped them grow during the winter. As I\u2019ve said a lot lately in my writing (although not on this site), we\u2019ll see.<\/o:p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
