    That is cool. That is what I should do as I have so many books that are sitting unread but I keep getting books from the library and reading those instead of the ones that are collecting dust in our apartment.

    I read Memoirs of a Geisha, and I have a very strong liking to this book, that's why your comment about it got my attention. Although I loved the book, I didn't, like you, take time to see what was said about it, so everything that you just stated is brand new informations lol I understand the "not accurate" now, it's a pity Golden went and did something like that with a story someone trusted him with! Anyway thanks for the explanation^^ am planning to read Geisha as soon as I can, the japanese writing still is always refreshing in its lightness

    hey Vonnie! I was going to email you last night and I do not have your email address saved in my account! Anyway, SO SORRY I haven't been around. I've been a little crazy busy just recently and haven't had much time to read or participate! I really wanted to THANK YOU for taking such good care of the group though! You're awesome and I'm pond scum! :( I will be asking for suggestions soon... maybe I'll have some time tonight. I've been taking work home with me lately... :( yuck yuck yuck!! Anyway, thanks again! And I want to send you something... will you send me your mailing address again? I should keep it handy! How are you? Are you doing ok?

    Vonnie ... I'll join the group but I can't guarantee that I'll be very active. I seem to have stretched myself out a bit thin groups-wise.

    It was good. It's hard to come back to reality which is me home with my kids for 12-15 hours a day trying to get ready for school. Have you thought about getting certified? Or maybe you are? I hear stories about how much they need teachers in CA..

    I hear you. I, too, am so behind! There's just so many I want to read and I just don't have the time!! Well, all we can do is take it one book at a time, right? Have a good one.
