It has been a long time since I posted, and frankly, since I finished a book. I have started several and just not gotten through. Which is probably the main reason I actually finished this one, despite it not being all that great. I figure I have to do about 3/month the next several months […]

I got the idea to read this book from this blog- from Steph reading it awhile back- thanks! It is even getting a new category: chic lit. Guess I don’t read much of that to have needed the category before… This is the third (I believe) and last (I believe) in the Sisterhood of […]

I guess I should’ve posted about all three together, but I didn’t plan on getting the other books so quickly. With instant downloads on the Kindle, it’s almost too easy. I think I liked the first book the best of the series, but they all […]

I’m glad I finally got a book read before the movie came out. I actually didn’t know there was going to be a movie when I started this one, but as I was reading I thought, they surely are going to make a movie of this. It would make a good one I think. I […]

Wishin’ and Hopin’ by Wally Lamb
Finally, I finished a book. I think I read this one quickly half out of frustration of not finishing anything lately. I have gotten into starting a book, reading 100 pages and stopping. Happens when I try to read too much non-fiction. This one is about a fifth grade boy in the 60’s going to […]

I’ve been reading.
But I haven’t been blogging. I’m not sure how many hours I spent on airplanes over the last couple months, but it’s more than I care to calculate. The airplane time, coupled with the fab iPad birthday gift have led me to be above average when it comes to the One Book, One Month Challenge. […]

Another relatively quick read here but something out of the fiction category again. I didn’t realize that it was a movie until I was almost done and someone said, “Oh, I’ve seen that movie.” So I watched the trailer, and I was not picturing any of the characters the way they look in the movie, […]

Disgrace by J M Coetzee
I found this book by searching for Nobel Prize authors and what was available at half price books. I think the quality of the writing was good– who am I to judge Nobel Prize winners– so I’ll say it was worthy. The content was more questionable but I will say real. This is not Christian […]

I’m still in fiction, but I feel that I might be heading out of it after this book. Not really anything against the book, it just left me wanting something more substantial (so maybe that is something against this book). It was decent. I felt like the author wanted to write about a group of […]

Several Books by Jodi Picoult
So after reading The Pact, I thought that I would raid my friend’s shelf for the rest of her Jodi Picoult books. 😉 With summers off work and an immense love of reading, I was able to knock out these three books in very little time. In my opinion, none of these three even compared […]
