Hey there stranger...got a new nook color hoping to pick up some books a little more quickly, recently read Ahabs Wife, long but nicely written! The room, a little freaky, and then had some fun with ^&^%^my dad says, and was even contemplating Tina Fey, but just saw your shelf and might try one! TTYS
Looking forward to summer? MAybe we can share some summer ideas, even though I haven't even touched the ones I have!!!
Does my shelf look a little better today? I have a few more to enter but will need to look through some of my boxes.
Have you read or heard anything about THE HELP? I just recieved it, and haven't started yet....by the time I have to read at night, I am beat!!
My God... I want to be able to read half of what you do! Will I ever be able to that again????
I have never even heard of that, I did hear you got a kindle though...I told Katie you hve problems this break, flying through books, and she informed me..do you like it? Where did you hear about that book?
I was resading the South by toibin while I was waiting for his new book Brooklyn, wasn't impressed and don't even know if I will. Sorry for the bad news.
I really liked it...I read Chains, by Laurie Halse Anderson at the same time. It's a YA book about slavery during the American Revolution in Boston/New York City area. Told from a young girl's point of view. I highly recommend it!
