Chest sore. Still coughing.

I really want some classes that actually challenge me, not just tell me stuff I already freaking KNOW. I'm not a genius, or even as smart as people keep thinking I am. I have a brain that I USE, and now I want to use it for more than rote memorization, and I finished Salt yesterday! And it was an awesome book but now I need more.

All right f-list! Break out the book recommendations. Preferably nonfiction, something that requires thought and is interesting. Philosophy, good history, even economics. I am desperate, y'all.

(Look, I am using my Eowyn at a FUNERAL icon. I am heading straight towards a foul mood if I don't get some real thinking done.)

Hmmm...nonfiction? Darn, I haven't read a lot of nonfiction.

But I do have a fiction book to recommend. An Abundance of Katherines by John Green. I'm reading it right now, and it's pretty quirky, and also does require some thinking. Well, I think. My brain's a little fried out by school right now, so I haven't had time to read some thought-provoking stuff. Sorry. :\

I shall look it up! Fiction's always good too. XD

YAY! Oh hey, semi-matching icons. XD

I just finished it, and I have to say I really liked it.
