Ok so I cheated. I took a 4-hour nap. Hahaha! And I still cheated right after by picking up two 32-paged illustrated poems. But seriously, how could I resist? It's Neil Gaiman!

Short, sweet and beautiful reads with gorgeous illustrations! Every girl should read Blueberry Girl (or have it read to her, or to a pregnant mother). It's so empowering.

And every kids should be wary and yet ready for an adventure in The Dangerous Alphabet. I love the drawings and the rhymes, moreso because I'm always in awe of authors who can write crazy ryhmes. Plus, I get to add this to my R.I.P. IV pile up for reviews later on. Hahaha!

Oh well.

I have coffee now. Two steaming mugs. I'm taking a break from reading. My brain still wants to sleep. But I'll go visit some blogs again. Go Team Transcendentalists!

Good morning from the Philippines!
