Airport "Stalking"

So I got to the airport a little early.

You know like through security an hour before my plane boards, early.

I like to be a little early because you never know what the security line will be like. Like the little kid in front of me that was flying for the first time alone. Sweet kid, but he didn't quite know all the security rules yet. :)

So I popped open my computer and then out of the corner of my eye I spotted it!

The third Hunger Games Book! (I have not read it yet, I'm saving it for later in the summer!)

I know you think I'm crazy, but I love the books. I love dystopian novels, ever since my English teachers forced me to read them... I fell in love. I guess being a rule follower, I get a kick out of the people who dare to break the rules and fight for what is right in a crazy mixed up world even if it does mean crazy things will happen. 1982 anyone?

Anyway so I laugh a little when I realize it's an old man, very serious looking, reading this book written for 5th graders (yes, I know I'm 25ish and looking reading a book for 5th graders).  But it looks like he's really into it.

So I keep staring.

...

Oh, it's not Hunger Games, it's Genesis of Shannara. What?!

 

See they look alike. Right??

So I figure he really is a serious business man.

Then I googled it.

Nope. It's something they call "epic and urban fantasy." And then it said "elves" ... Who knew. Maybe he is as crazy as I am.

Happy Airport Reading! or Airport Stalking if that's your preference. :)
