Breaking Dawn by: Stephanie Meyer.

I dragged myself through the first three books in the series quickly enough. I figured that I should read the series to form my own opinions instead of just listening to what other people told me. I'm not very impressed.

Personally, I love reading about "The Big Issues."

A personal fave of mine is Isle of Wight, British author, David Icke.  Many people think he's quite the madman.  I think he's rather the genius.  The economic fiasco that's brewing worldwide?  Nobody addresses it more directly or candidly, IMHO: 

You open-minded?  You free-thinking?  You bold-spirited?  Then this one's for you ... "Robots' Rebellion" by David Icke ... here's the whole thing:

Check out the table of contents.   Peace    :)   Lacey
Believe.  Persist.  Arrive.    :D

I found all three of The Girl series to be an excellent read. Enjoy.

That book is out of print and not cheap. I read it 4 years ago and keep my copy clean.

I have read every book by David Icke. Totally cool and quite ingenious. Robot's Rebellion would not let me put it down. I read it cover to cover. Very enlightening read and packed with history. =)

I actually found the full text online at no cost. I read it in about 4 days. If anyone wishes to read it just google Book of Mirdad.

Another book I am reading, also available online at no cost.
From Sex to Superconsciousness by Osho

I have taken an extended break from reading books so am doing a bit of light reading ... an old issue of National Geographic magazine (march 2009)

Sometimes when life is a fight - we just have to fight back and say screw you - I want to live.

Sometimes we just need to believe.

Next is the Dear Dumb Diary series by Jim Benton.
Our biograhies are our own and we need to accept our own diversity without being ashamed that we're somehow not trans enough.
