Books, books, books!
I went to the movies and, again, felt the need to buy another book. But, this time, things changed: I bought two books.
The first one is one of the books you need to read to get your geek badge: “The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy”. It is a big book, with all Douglas Adams’ related books: “The Hitchhicker’s Guide To The Galaxy”, “The Restaurant At The End Of The Universe”, “Life, the Universe and Everything”, “So Long, and Thanks for All The Fish”, “Mostly Harmless” and “Young Zaphod Plays It Safe”. I already finished reading the first one and, to be honest, it is quite… boring. I believe the main reason is that I saw the movie before reading it and the two are quite the same thing, with a few things in different order and some other things from the other books (I already read some of “The Restaurant” and some parts of it were in the movie). A fun reading, nonetheless, as Douglas’ writing style is quite amusing.
The second book I bought because of an ad. That’s right, I bought a book just because some television ad. The ad in question is the one Apple presented in the super bowl and the book is “1984″, by George Orwell. That is the book of the “big brother”. Not the stupid television show with stupid people, but the notion that everything you do is saw by someone else.
So, right now, I have plenty of reading.
