Soooo Goood!

Sometimes...I just want to slip into a yummy book that is filled with characters you love and characters that you love to hate...Jane Green totally hit the mark with this one!




I literally did not put it down yesterday...Den was in South Dakota...I was free and I randomly picked this from my Amazon Vine pile...so good...two families on separate coasts with one thing in common...lol...again...so good!

It is a blustery day here! I need to zip out for provisions...and then settle in and try to stay warm and toasty! Tea? Perhaps a fire? Another good book?

I have spent any down time I have this week archiving all of the books on my old Kindle...so that Dennis can have it...uncluttered...after spending time putting books into collections...only to find out that the collections are sort of useless on my new Kindle PaperWhite. But the PaperWhite is awesome for travel...light and small...easier to read on a plane and at night...and no buttons...I love a touchpad. But right now...on my Paperwhite...archived or read books are mixed in with unread books...I needed a separate archived section because I read so much...but I am now just keeping a folder on my laptop of read books...it's my temporary solution until Amazon comes up with one...also books can only be archived one at a time...you can't archive collections...and I have one last collection to archive...whew!

Old Kindle...



New kindle...


A bit more lounging and I am off to the store!

I want to wear this but it's too cold and blustery!



I will most likely look like this!

  1. It's cold here too - it's only supposed to get up to 48 and we've gotten used to the 70s. I've read one Jane Green book and I loved it.

  3. The book looks great. I still prefer "real" books. Just sayin'.
    I would like the poncho, in greys & blues though.
    You're really a pleasure, Patty.

  4. I can't wait to read Family Pictures...it's on my list for next week, but if I hurry and finish the e-book I'm reading, maybe I can read it this weekend. Or Orphan Train. I got both from Vine...and I'm having a hard time deciding between them.

  5. Yeah for an aweome book!

    I have OCD and I need for Amazon to come up with a more efficient way to organize Kindle books. It drives me crazy, isn't organized and takes forever. I could give them lots of ideas on ways to improve in that area. :)

  6. I love my new Nook with the glowlight! It's perfect for reading in bed and on a plane. It's so small and light, too. The picture of the "snow bunnies" don't look too sexy...lol...I'm behind on reading your posts...hee hee hee...Doing them all at once! Ha!
