Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi. Do you sense a theme here? I was afraid that the edition the library had (hardback -- the first one I read was paperback, set like a traditional comic book) would be hard to read, but it wasn't. I finished it in a few hours. I want more more more!
Otherwise, I've been reading lots of zines and trying to write one. It's ending up being a very wordy perzine; I'd like to add images or something but I feel inadequate. And I'm having problems making the tone informal because I can't get my head into non-report-writing mode for some reason. I mean, my writing's always a little formal because of my weird way of phrasing (not using contractions a lot of the time, for example), but this is really bad. I may just have to let it go the way it is, though, because my deadline is four days away.
I've also been reading too many magazines and spending too much time online. I hope to be over my online addiction by the end of the week, once the novelty of having a connection at home again wears off. For one, it takes up too much of the precious time-while-Rabbit's-napping that I have, and for two, the pockets of drama you find everywhere get old after a while.
So many things taking up reading time!
