As If We Need More Books!!!












These books caught my attention this week...










Take a look at this one...disappearing mother...turbulent childhood for her daughter...and Maine...even lobsters...sounds like a must read!!!










And this one...described as a sort of gripping tale of a marriage that is falling apart and a wife who will do anything to prevent it from happening...


Yo!!! This kind of dysfunction has my name on it!!!










This one is another family story...it too has been described as gripping and intense...

Oh boy!!! I love gripping!!!

I love intense!!!

I love triple exclamation points!!!

Doesn't it convey my excitement?

Wait...I am excited over dysfunction? Well...kind of but only in books...not my own...

LOL?

I finally finished reading this...really good...review is on Goodreads...









I started this on Saturday and due to its INTENSITY...
I just finished it now...whew...a fast paced quest kind of book that I normally don't read but did read and did love...lots of bad guys and good guys trying to find something called "anatomicgold" or white ash...which can ultimately alter the history of civilization...









I have no clue what I will be reading next...I think I need something mellow...
like this...










What are you reading today?

  4. I love your enthusiasm, too! :) I just finished Winter Garden, which if you are into family dynamic sort of stuff you'd probably like this. It was good.
    I'm not sure what's next, possibly The Night Circus.

  6. These books look fantastic! I especially like the cover for Carry the One. I haven't read any of the Bad Kitty books- but I hear they are fun.

  7. I love the cover of that red ruby one! I'd pick it up on that picture alone!

  8. I like the Bad Kitty books ever since I needed a read-aloud that would work for both a seven year old and a thirteen year old; Bad Kitty saved my bacon! I'll vote Bad Kitty for president.
