It's been updated. Again. (I'm also going to add the books I buy this year as I buy them--and the new releases that I know I'm buying--so that it's a better list of what I've read and what I want to read.) The Sister by Poppy Adams Little Women by Louisa May Alcott The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison...
So every so often, I'm asked for book recommendations. It's harder than you'd think, because I read so much and I always worry I'm forgetting stuff. So here's a quick guide for the stuff you should read if you want to read like me. Broken into genres because I'm OCD it's helpful. And I'll do seven...
So I had the bright idea of adding all new books I buy and the books I know I will buy to the book project so at the end of the year I'll know what books I read. And so it will become apparent to all who read this just how much of a life I (don't) have. It's a lot, I know. But I also know I can...
The Best Girl by Emma Harrison Reading this I felt like I was back in elementary school. This book very much reminded me of the Sweet Dreams teen "romance" novels I read in about third grade. Kiss Me, Creep was my favorite, and I must have read it at least a dozen times. The couples in these books...

My mother in law called this morning saying she wanted to take all her 4 of her grandkids to Fun Zone. I thought she must be crazy to haul all of them to Montgomery on a day when she doesn't watch them, but okay. :) Troy left here at 11:30 to take the kids to MIL's. I read a little bit and fell...
I can't say that my love of books and reading started with Stephen King. No, my parents get to take the credit there. Their house was filled with books - books on shelves, books in boxes; ancient, dusty volumes and cheap, colorful paperbacks alike. We read, and we were read to... The Hobbit, The...

Mary Higgins Clark and I are breaking up. I had her two most recent books and I tried to read both and couldn't make it past the first two or three chapters of either. I'm also breaking up with Janet Evanovich. I finished Fearless Fourteen but it was a struggle. The Janet Evanovich breakup is harder...
Finished Lord of the Flies by William Golding. I liked it more than I did in high school but wow, really unsettling. Next up? Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner. (eBay sells advanced reader copies!) Which actually is my moral dilemma. I've ordered three ARCs now and does this make me a bad person? I'm...
I was SOOOOO looking forward to Jennifer Weiner's latest Certain Girls. Well everything was zipping along as usual. Enjoying the book immensely. And WHAM! I did not like the ending. There was no need for it because the story had already kind of tied up all the loose ends. I didn't like this ending...
