66 - 68: get out, get out, get out of my head.

Yo, so I read this in the library, and very quickly too, so I don't have any quotes to post or remember much about this or anything like that except for the biking through the countryside (chances of parents allowing four kids to ride through the country in real life being ridiculously low aside, cycling in the #ountry is exactly as awesome as Blyton makes it out to be!!!) and the house with the smuggled man and the ~~abused lady~~. Blyton, why do all your plots sound so dumb when I outline them like that?
YEAH, SO I DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING INTERESTING TO SAY THIS TIME ROUND
Malay Sketches, by Alfian Sa'at.
( Shit!!!!!!! )
A Tale of Time City, by Diana Wynne Jones.
Oh hey, look, my first Diana Wynne Jones!
... I actually have no idea why it took me so long to crack open one of her novels. I enjoyed this! I enjoyed this very much: it was a brilliant romp, the kind where you read way too fast because you want to know what happens next and then don't really get what's going on, but I will probably reread and have something more insightful to say the next time besides ♥THE VIVIANS♥ and DAMN THAT WAS A GOOD PLOT TWIST and also DOCTOR WILANDER :DDDDD and ( spoiler )
Next time I will: allow less time and fewer books to go by in between reviews. I never have anything terribly exciting to say except for one book at a time. /o\ On the bright side, I finally got around to keeping a list of books I want to read, and referring to it when I'm at the library. I now have a whole stack of books I'm really excited about! \o/ Currently reading: Raymond Carver.
