What were you thinking?!
I...Wow --that first list! What were you thinking?!<br /><br />I really love the Mma Ramotswe series. I actually own all of those --for real, too, not just on my Kindle :-) They have pride of place on a real bookshelf.<br /><br />A friend recommended a new author, Jonahtan Tropper, and I just finished "How To Talk To A Widower". His books are very good character studies, and I've enjoyed two of them. Next on my list is Graceling, which I downloaded based on a recommendation from another blogger, Kristy at The Crislers.<br /><br />My absolute favorite recent read, though, is Anna Quindlen's "Lots of Candles, Plenty of Cake". Wonderful musings on the pleasures of not being young anymore :-)Cassihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04058787761575567910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-23155966141626447582012-07-18T11:10:30.630-04:002012-07-18T11:10:30.630-04:00Our youngest daughter is just letting go of the Ma...Our youngest daughter is just letting go of the Magic Treehouse series. A great series for beginning chapter-book readers. I didn't like The Scarlet Letter, and haven't read The Crucible. Now I have to read it to find out who they burn at the stake!Common Household Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03715969218648104267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-7794440158685889942012-07-17T22:46:45.438-04:002012-07-17T22:46:45.438-04:00Reading???

I did try to read "The Scarlet Letter" again and was very upset when #1 I skipped paragraphs because of the details and #2 when I realized I mixed up the ending with "The Crucible"... I kept wondering when they were going to burn her at the stake! What a letdown.Chad, Katie and Chloehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768599682636096961noreply@blogger.com
