The Last Lecture

A great, quick read. It really puts things in perspective and makes you think how you would feel in his shoes. I hope if I were in his shoes I could find such a great way to share my life with my kids.

The Sugar Queen

A good beach read, but nothing to write home about. I read this for book club and I am glad I did it was fun. But my book club is going to need to beef it up a little, too many fluff reads in a row. Does anyone have any good suggestions? Some books I really enjoyed were Water for Elephants and The Double Bind, great novels that are challenging as well.

Getting Caught Up

So I've read several books, but forgot to post them.

Pillars of the Earth
For the record I didn't read this because of Oprah, I read it because several other people had reccommended it. It was good, but man it was long. I am trying to decide if I am up for the sequel. I do feel really smart when I read a book that long. :)

Friday Night Knitting Club
I should have known when it said like Steel Magnolia's set in NYC. Too sad, not that well written. It was a good beach read but you could probably do better.

Certain Girls
I thought it was okay, but I hated the ending. What do people have against a happy ending. I know that they don't always happen, but sometimes they do.

Girlfriend's Guide to Surviving the First Year of Motherhood
I love these books, highly recommend it if you are in this place in life.

The Sleeping Doll
A good murder mystery. Sometimes I forget I like these it was a good quick easy read that wasn't too scary.
