Emotional Rollercoaster — 1 year ago

I started reading Twilight on Tuesday night… Was obsessed about going back to reading it all day at work on Wednesday, and finished it Wed night, promptly starting New Moon.

I haven’t had such an emotional connection to a book in a LONG time. It’s embarrassing but I was totally crying reading the first 1/3 of New Moon. My plan was to read until it got happy again but no such luck yet. It wouldn’t do to go to work tired, upset, and obsessed about getting back to reading.

I really need to find a job where I get paid to read what I like…

Darn magazines... — 1 year ago

The heap of unread magazines in my living room has been distracting me from my books. I really must resolve not to renew them!

Highlights so far.... — 1 year ago

The Pellinor Series is amazing! It’s in the vein of LOTR but Croggon does a wonderful job of creating her own unique world with creatures, characters and rules of it’s own. I’m having a very hard time waiting for the fourth and final book in the series to come out. It recently got delayed 6 months. Grrr…

Tasha Alexander’s series on Lady Emily are far and away the best historical fiction I have read in a good long time (and I tend to read a lot)! Emily is a moxie young widow with an interest in classic art and literature and a penchant for PI work. The characters are witty and charming yet remain true to the period. Alexander doesn’t skimp on the history either but she manages to weave it in the story seamlessly.
