On The Road

I can't stop reading this book, it's addictive. If you haven't i seriously recomend you start reading as soon as possible! It makes you want to pack your bags, go on the road and live some adventures! I just got home from a short trip to Brasilia, never been there before so it was nice to see some new places, maybe i'll put some pictures later on.

So Many Books So Little Time


As a child I always loved reading (alright i used to read comics, but still) and as i grew older,
my love for books grew as well.

I know is very cliché to say that I love most of Jane Austin books especially
Pride And Prejudice, i bought the English copy when I was living in England
and feel in love even more with the language and the writing.
I like classics. I always need help when choosing more contemporary books,
i never know what to buy, I don't know most of the new writers,
so it turns something as pleasant as book shopping into a chaos of doubt.

The last book I read is called Dylan On Dylan, and my mum gave me a new book,
so I say why not? I’ll read it. The thing I didn't know was that the book is the first of a 13 book saga....yes 13.I'm not complaining I’m loving the books, it's just that I keep staring at the shelf where the books i queue jumped are glaring at me with revolt.

Well I guess they'll have to wait, just a bit.

Dylan On Dylan


I've been trying to find a good book to read these days, not that i'm bored with reading the twiligh saga (believe me i've read those four books about a 1000 times and i still love them). I'm a fan of the classics, Jane Austin, Charllote and Emily Bronte, Oscar Wild and so on but i wanted to read something new, fresh, a real story.
I've been painting my room for the past couple of days and as i had to move most of my stuff around i've been finding alot of things i've forgotten i had.

I found this book i boutgh back in England last year, called ''Dylan On Dylan" and decided to give it a shot. the book is a gathering of some of the interviews he's given since 1962.

I've been learning some much from reading them, it's helping me to understand him as an artist and as a person, and i can see how he has never been afraid of showing who he really is, taking risks and staying true to himself.

There are some amazing quotes in this book, and i'm going to post some of them from time to time. reading about someone who have a life like his inspire me to do the best i can in every aspect of my life, and personally i think we all should have some Bob Dylan in us.
