I need another book

So I'm a blog hopper. I'm also kinda a blog stalker at the same time in that I read other people's blogs that I'm kinda sure don't know me but I find their lives intersting and helpful when it comes to....well things/life in general. So as I blog hop/stalk I notice that my blog is soooooooooooo boring. I don't think in information it is boring, but just the look. I don't think that it represents me. That being said, I'm trying to learn a bit more about HTML code, but then I'm lazy. To me it looks like a bunch of greek letters that might spell something every now and then but that's it. But I know if I could read it and change it that I could make my blog at least look a bit more interesting. Any sugguestions anyone???
