books i want to read

SO books on Kindle were really cheap today - probably an average of £1.50? So I thought I would buy one. Or three.

I got The 100 which is a dystopian novel about 100 prisoners who are sent back to earth after humans have been living on a space ship style thing for quite some time. I have just started this and it isn't shaping up to be all that good but I will persevere.


Next book is one I am really excited about reading, We Were Liars by E. Lockhart. I am not quite sure what it is about, I have read the first couple of pages, but it is highly recommended and from the first couple of pages I get a good feeling for the book. The style is vaguely similar to More than This, by Patrick Ness, and that was a great book so I am really excited to read this one.



















Finally, Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell, this book has been recommended to me several times, and a friend recently read it and enjoyed it. I have read Fangirl, by the same author and thought that was a pleasant read, so I am quite excited for this book too, even if romance is not my forte.



















I will maybe-possibly-probably write a review for each one, after I have read them, although that is quite a dedication to make so let's see if I do.

Barcelona Part II!

So this part, is where I, go to Montserrat, which is a, place where, they use, excessive  commas incorrectly, YAY,!

So Montserrat is a mountain in Spain, we went up in a vernacular and it was pretty damn awesome.
I stole the picture as I havent uploaded my own yet.

SO anyway, on this mountain there is a monastery and I think it's a kind of pilgrimage place because literally hundreds of people were queuing up to do something special inside.

What was that something special? It was, as you guessed (sarcasm) kissing a black Madonnas foot.

Before you say WTF, let me explain. :)

Basically, Madonna is like the spanish Virgin Mary, and this one happened to be a black statue. Now all of it is in a glass case, except it's foot, which pokes out. People have been coming for hundreds of year to kiss the foot, and so many have that it is actually eroded from kissing.

Now I wouldn't touch the thing because germs, but people were leaving their wedding dresses and giving their stuff to the statue so it must have been pretty darn special.

Amy!
