Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll

Review:

Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll, B.J. Harrison

I'm a sucker for Alice's adventures, I feel believing in impossible things is a good mantra for life in general. It was nice to revisit a childhood favourite and spend some time in wonderland, instead of the real world. 

 

5/5 stars

Somebody Stop Me...

Nightmares! - Jason Segel, Karl Kwasny, Kirsten Miller The 78-Storey Treehouse - Andy Griffiths, Stig Wemyss, Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd

I'm beginning to think I need rehab, but for books.  I keep telling myself that I won't buy any more, but then I find something that I 'really need' or that my girls 'really need' and before I blink I'm through the checkout and out the door with the books in hand...

 

Today was again one of those days, this time I've managed to pass of today's haul off as being super prepared for Christmas, but that still doesn't solve my lack of book shelf space... nor find homes for the stacks of books currently taking over my coffee table. So Santa, if you're watching, I'd love some book cases this year, even if I have been a little wicked as far as my books are concerned.

Guess who's back, back again...

It feels like forever since I've posted, and I suppose it has been several months.  But hopefully that will change, now that I once again have a working, or at least mostly working, computer, hooray! 

 

Though I've been able to get online with my phone, I hated trying to do anything more than list books I was reading, trying to post was just awful. 

 

My reading seems to have taken a back seat this year, I'm many books behind where I wished to be, but I have Uni (and to an extent life in general) to thank for that. Now that I'm a third of the way into my second semester I'm hoping that things are settled enough that I can catch up on all the books I intended to have read by now.

 

I'm hoping to get some time to catch up on review writing too, since I have a multitude of books that are missing reviews, but those will take a while and will be second to the numerous essays, assignments and exams I have to complete over the next few months.

Review:

Biological Psychology: An Introduction to Behavioral, Cognitive, and Clinical Neuroscience (Looseleaf), Seventh Edition - S. Marc Breedlove, Neil V. Watson

Now that I've finished with my Behavioural Neuroscience unit I no longer need to read this, that is until I pick up another Psychology unit.

 

An interesting read, if you are interested in psychology and the inner workings of the great grey lump that keeps us going.
