    I bought an introductory book to philosophy. I LOVE it so far. Probably one of the best books ever.

    Youth in Revolt, CD Payne. It was hilarious, and now I really want to go book shopping again.

    have you read this book Madhuri?
    I sent my Soul through the Invisible,
    Some letter of that After-life to spell:
    And by and by my Soul return'd to me,
    And answer'd "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell :"

    Walking the Trail (one man's journey along the Cherokee Trail of Tears
    by Jerry Ellis
    Got it on sale...I thought it would be about him walking the Trail of Tears and he would write about what happened in 1838 where ever he was at any given timer....it's really about him needing a woman.
