New Obsessions



I gave the UPS man quite a scare as I flew the door open and ripped the package out of his hand. I only had to wait two days for the glorious arrival of my newest obsession but it felt like years as I waited quite impatiently to read this children’s book. A simplistic joy. One of those things you stumble upon and it grasps the center of your attention. Shaun Tan got me when he wrote and illustrated “Tales from Outer Suburbia.” This book contains lighthearted stories that will keep you thinking for hours. All the things you wish were different about life in Suburbia become reality in this collection of stories.

Buy it. Borrow it. Read it. Love it.


The Temper Trap needs no justification as to why they are a new obsession. They escort me as I walk to class, soak up the sun on the front lawn of CBU, or go for a night drive.

A companion one must not leave home without.
