the BEST book (or one of. . .)

I'm just going to jump right in, because I haven't really got time to ramble this morning.

Okay, my eyes are actually not really jade, I guess. More the same color as the background on my header. That's probably my eyes color, if a little lighter and eye-like. :D

My sister has these lovely rich mahogany, deep brown eyes. She says she doesn't like them. I think they're beautiful. She even said that people usually call them black. Psht. Not even close.

I'm reading this book at the moment "The Book of Flying" by Keith Miller. Let me tell you what, I think I'm going to have to buy this book. Yes, it's that good. It's one of my new favorites. Don't get me wrong, it isn't exactly the longest book, nor does it have a particularly captivating plot and such. No, this book is absolutely amazing simply because it's written in such a way as to make me believe that I'm reading a poem in prose form. There's a poem hidden within it. I love it. Like, there is a ton of alliteration in it, and when he describes things - the imagery is spectacular. But I am simply . . . what do you call it, building up this pedestal and simply worshipping this book. I love it. Suffice it to say. :D I suggest you read it, it may be small, but it isn't going to take you a small time to read it. For me, mostly, it takes forever simply because I keep wanting to copy down this phrase, or that paragraph, or those comments. Lol. It's very arduous because of it. Which is why I think it best if I buy the book. Then I could reread it, memorize said lines, and not have to worry about losing them. :D

Problem solved. Read the damn book. :D

Oh, and comment, if you feel like it, to describe your own eyes. Lol. I would be doubly interested to know, whether I know you or not, whether I've ever heard of you or seen your blog or not. :D I still find it fascinating to know.
