Book haul, but not for me

Shawshank, June 19, 2022

So yesterday, while I was in CapitalCity, one of the main goals was to find this specific book for my dad for Father’s Day.

Let me preface this by saying that my dad isn’t a reader. I believe he may be on the spectrum, and has a heathy dose of dyslexia. It’s very very hard for him to do any reading. When he was studying for all of his mechanics courses, he would literally memorize the entire book for the course. My mom would read all of them to him.

Anyways, I told him about this book a couple of weeks ago, and immediately was very interested in it, and was asking a lot of questions about it. So like I said getting this book was one of the main reasons to drive 2.5 hours to a city that actually had a book store.

I get to the book store and find the last copy of it. I was so happy, I think I did a little happy dance right there in the store.

I have a YouTube video for him to watch, and then he’ll be able to make his own murder wall!

I have all the faith in the world that he’ll solve this mystery!

Hey book nerds! Just wanted to do a quick book haul from SlightlyBiggerTown. I hope the second hand store here in TinyTown opens again soon because I really do miss going there. I went last Friday, and they had already closed for the new year. I don’t know when they…

In an effort to prolong this glorious read, I labeled all the inserts and pulled them out of the book. Then, I did what I’ve been known for (in order to prolong House of Leaves, I re-read it 4 or 5 times before I finished it); I started Ship of…
