Picking a Book (#5)

This week I'm going to read "Candy" by Kevin Brooks. It was published in 2005. "Candy" is Kevin Brooks Fourth Novel. I went on amazon.com, and looked up the customer reviews, and everyone seemed to like it (except for one person who gave it only 1 star, but I think they only did that to stand out from the other reviews that were praising the book. i dont know, but whatever.) So yeah, I heard that this book had something to do with drugs, and previously reading "Go Ask Alice," which was another book about drugs, I can't wait to read it! So uhh, yeahh. Okay, moving on...

About the Author
Well, I never heard of the book "Candy" before seeing it on Ms.Faughey's book list thingy that she gave us, but I did know who "Kevin Brooks" was. I think that most people know him as "the guy who wrote the book 'Lucas.'" Do you guys remember what guy I'm taking about now? Ehh, hopefully you do. But, back to the author. Kevin Brooks was born on March 30, 1959. He grew up in Exeter, Devon, England, but now lives in Manningtree, Essex, England. He has published about 10 books, and one book is due out this year, called "Black Rabbit Summer."

One interesting fact aout Kevin Brooks, is that when he was asked "what is your most precious memory?" he said "[My most precious memory was] Sitting on a wall when I was ten years old, wondering where your thoughts go when you die. (I decided that they float up into space and become fuel for the sun)." I don't know about you guys, but I find that kind of interesting, and now he's got me wondering where your thought go when you die.

The Book
This book has 368 pages, but if I really get into it, I think I'll be done by Sunday =D
