So, earlier this week I went to my local branch of the Queens Public Library System. I was reminded of the joy i feel when entering libraries (Books! Free Books!) I was also reminded that I think the Queens System is a pretty solid one. I decided to pick up some travel books, as I am embarking on a “Life Changing Trip Out West” in two weeks and wanted to plan. Because, that’s what I do. Plan.

I picked up this book 1,000 Places to See Before You Die, because really, that’s a promising title.

However, apparently you need to see a bunch of fancy resorts before you die, because that is truly where all the wonders of the world are held. This book was terrible. I say boo! to it.

But, you know what was great? Picking up the first three of Michael Apted’s Seven Up! Series I loved them.

Also, if you’re interested in getting free postcards (free postcards?!!?) from this trip, then you should send me your address. it’ll be great!
