I Like to Read

Oh bother...I forgot to update when I switched from The Voyage of the Dawn Treader to The Silver Chair.  The dates listed on the Book List are just about what I think is right.  I'm getting ready to start on The Last Battle, the final novel in The...

Book #26 is coming up soon, and that will mean I'm halfway to 52! I finished Devilish by Maureen Johnson tonight.  I surprised myself by reading about 130 pages of it in one sitting and finishing it that way, actually.  Not to say that it wasn't a...

I did finally wrap up American Gods, which I loved.  I moved on to Now & Then by Jacqueline Sheehan, a book that was lent to me by a co-worker, as she had seen me reading Lost & Found in January.  She actually gave me the book to read earlier...

Okay well almost a month has passed, but I'm still reading the same book.  I'm sure it isn't smart of me to be picking a few long books to read during the challenge, especially when I've been having limited time to read.  It really is no excuse, but I...

I meant for my "update to follow" to be May 7th, but life gets in the way and here I am.  Okay, so really, I just have a bad memory and I'm good at procrastinating. especially when I feel like the only people reading it are the people who only read it...

Laurie Notaro is the nicest (and most funny) author I have ever met.  That said, I have not met a whole lot of professional writers.  I'm pretty sure that if I went around meeting more authors, Laurie Notaro would still be at the top.  A few friends...

My nephew was born this week!  I really couldn't be more proud of him.  He is the cutest, most awesome baby I have ever met.  Just to show him how much I love him, I gave him his very own copy of The Hobbit for his future reading - it is never too...

I finally finished up A Reliable Wife, and the whole book is totally worth it.  It may not end in the happiest, most expected, or most wanted of ways, but it ends in a way that I felt some sort of satisfaction and closure with.  I did grow to care about...

This must really be the week to slap me across the face with plot twists. Although some of them I probably should have seen coming, I didn't. Most of them come from working on catching up with Lost, so by the time it wraps up this spring, I'll be ready...
