Couldn't get to sleep last night, so I stayed up and finished it. It was fantastic, though the overall tone was, again, kinda sad. I feel like everything I've read lately has been on the sad side; I could probably use something happy and/or fluffy to break that up. Was looking at a couple Dalai Lama books yesterday; maybe one of those, though as non-fiction I'm not really sure if they qualify for the list or not. However, seeing as how this is my list, I'll say it does.
On a completely unrelated note, when the hell did postage rates go up? Suddenly it's 39 cents to send a letter, and since I can't be fucked to go get 2 cent stamps (do they even exist? I'm sure there must be some smaller denomination I could go get and which I probably should, but the stamps are already on the envelope and oh-my-God-I'm-totally-getting-ahead-of-the-story-here) I've got 2 37 cent stamps sitting on the stuff I need to send. What a waste. Damn the man!
