Latest read - what I do when I ought to be doing other things!


Saw this on the shelf at Target and thought it sounded intriguing.  It sounded better than it was.  Not sure if it's the translation? Or the subject matter?  

The story line is a good one - you want to know how it all turns out - but that is mostly what kept me reading!

Not the best recommendation!

A Time to Read!


Phoebe was mentioning this book - and then I saw it at Target and went ahead and bought it.  It was 20% off at least (I have been known to advocate not buying more books - easier said than done!)

Turns out I'm way behind - everyone I have mentioned it to seems to have read it! I need to keep up a little better I guess.

This was a charming story to read. It is not great art - but it is well-told. And I frankly felt that the characters - though definitely one-dimensional - were true to life.  I could think of someone I know to match everyone of them!

If you are like me and are behind the times, give this one a look-see - and let me know what you think!
