Awful Library Books – My New Favorite Website

Always read the subhead.

There’s a new highly-specific blog in town and it’s called Awful Library Books, where two public librarians from Michigan go through the stacks to find the worst titles/covers/general content they can in an effort to showcase some cool books that may have been overlooked, or simply force public libraries to be more current.

My favorite book this week: Jewish Pirates of the Caribbean (subhead: How a Generation of Swashbuckling Jews Carved Out an Empire in the New World in their Quest for Treasure, Religious Freedom and Revenge). OhmygodIloveitsomuch.

Join forces and submit books to the site at submit@awfullibrarybooks.net.

A Moment of Glee

Glee premiered last night, and true to form, it was amazing. Here’s what you missed: Finn tried out for the Cheerios; there’s a new football coach who’s a woman and super scary; Schue and Sue joined forces for about 15 minutes until Schue got back in touch with his conscience; Quinn is head cheerleader again; there’s a new quarterback with Justin Bieber hair and a really weird mouth; Tina is dating “the other Asian;” and Rachel had a bathroom battle with Sunshine to “Telephone,” which was amazeballs.

Check out my performance of the night above!

Next week: The Britney Spears episode!!

Dancing with the Stars: Who’s Going Home?

So the majority of you think that Margaret Cho is going to be voted out tonight, but there were only 4 votes. That’s a poor showing people, get it together. I’m working for you here. Who are we kidding, I’m doing this for myself because I have no creative outlet. It’s ok guys, I’ll just talk it out with my therapist later.

So tonight on the elimination episode we have Santana, India Arie and Daughtry performing. Brooke is covered up. She must have gotten my mom’s messages on ABC.com. And The Situation looks like no one told him there was an elimination episode.

I’ll be putting up the safe couples as the night goes on, so don’t read any further if you don’t want spoilers. Love it!
