Ready to start number 40 - but the library is closed today!!


There appears to be one more Anna Quindlen novel I'd like to read - but haven't been able to get my hands on it - and am trying to resist the urge to purchase it on Kindle!!

Rise and Shine was more cheerful than the last one - which was a little grim - and it was a little more "unbelieveable" too.  But then, what's literature without some "willing suspension of disbelief?"

The story is about a news anchor who is amazingly popular - a veritable Madonna of the morning news set.  Her program is called, of course, "Rise and Shine!"  

I've never thought morning news anchors were quite that popular - but then, what do I know?

It reads a little like a Grisham novel in some ways - what with escaping to a little known Pacific island.  And it has plenty of action and intrigue.

A good summer read.  Number 39 on my list of reading 52 books this year.

On to number 40 - today is a perfect reading day too!!

Happy 4th of July one and all!
