oh this is so adorable ♥ by the amazing Amanda Palmer
Neil Gaiman makes the most beautiful, magical stories even when he is asleep *.*

What I read:

• The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt (just a few dozen pages left, so I'm considering it a win)
• Radium Girls by Amanda Gowin

What I'll be reading:

• White Noise by Don DeLillo (seriously this time)
• Incarnations by Chris Deal

What I'll be drinking:

• Rubaeus Raspberry Ale from Founders Brewing Co.
• Love Child #4 from Boulevard Brewing Co.
• Championship Ale from Boulevard Brewing Co.
• Imperial Biscotti Break from Evil Twin
• Imperial Doughnut Break from Evil Twin

This makes two videos in a row in which I wear a Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds shirt and drink Sexy Betty Imperial Stout. No, I’m not a slob drunk; I simply recorded two videos in a row.

Amanda Gowin’s Radium Girls is all sorts of interesting. It’s weird, it’s heartfelt, it’s wavering, it’s beautiful, it’s poetic, and it’s a bunch of other things I can’t think of right now because I’m tired.

You should buy this book!

I'm back with another convoluted way to destroy books. Once again I took to Facebook to ask for some suggestions about how best to destroy a book. This time: A goat. I'm with you, I never thought of a goat as much of a destruction machine, but apparently Amanda Gowin does. Watch as some very finicky goats refuse the delicious meal I offer them.

Book destroyed: Radium Girls by Amanda Gowin. Buy it!: http://www.amazon.com/Radium-Girls-Amanda-Gowin/dp/0692211683

I really like this book trailer -- fun.  @HarlequinTeen
