Two Books read.

I finish The Trials of Oscar Wilde some time ago.

But only seconds ago did my eyes finish the last page of Camille by Dumas Fils, and I dare say it was the best romance I have ever read. Certainly, it has touched at my top ten, if not five. The romance of it, and the sadness of it, were so immense and great to read about. Some lines were beautiful; written so perfect that they made me envious. Why can I not write things that come out so perfectly? I was angered that my copy (Published by Signet Classic) was riddled with typos and errors, but it was a cheep book and so I can only blame that.

But my Gosh, Read it! It was amazing to read. It was so romantic; so depressing! I am in love with it. I'm really excited to see if Dumas Fils wrote anything else, (mind you all this is the son of Dumas, if you don't know that) because it was so well written. I like both Dumas, and Dumas fils. Maybe thats only because they come from the time period I like so much, the 1800's.

I haven't a clue what I am to read next. The Maltese falcon? Maybe. Thats what I told myself I would read. But I'm in a dazed state, as I get after reading a really good book. I'm so happy from it! It was just so well written. I beg of you (Those that, if there are any I must say, read this blog) read Camille! It's short, but it is wonderful!

I will certainly read something soon. I would much rather read than write, right now. I do not feel like writing.
