Crazy Enough by Storm Large

Read:

Lost At Sea by Jon Ronson

The Round House by Louise Erdrich

Love Anthony by Lisa Genova

I tried How To Be a Woman by Caitlin Moran. Nope. It was a DNF for this reader. I’m no prude but it read as if it was meant to be shocking and dirty. It came off crass. I wanted to like it. Ah well!

I may review the above books, or maybe not! I can do what I want, neener neener boo boo!

I joined in the Let’s Talk meme again. The question this week was about time management. (Insert snorty laughter here)

Also, I shared some of what I’m feeling, wishing & anticipating.

I hope you had a fab and bookish week…here’s to another!

Days 26 and 27: A book I wish would be written and a book I would write if I had all the resources

Days 28, 29 and 30: A book I wish I had never read, an author that I won’t read, and an author that I’ll read whatever they put out

Christine from Rainy Day Reads featured me on her Book Blogger Spotlight. Thanks Christine, you’re a peach!

I hope all of my American readers had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! I was able to spend the day with all three of my kids at my sister’s house. We had fab food and tons of laughs. Late that night we braved the crowds and the yucky windy/snowy weather to hit some sales. You know, I really don’t want to be one of those Black Friday maniacs…especially now that it’s creeped its way onto the actual holiday. But there were some sales that I couldn’t resist, and it was a blast hanging out with my mom, sister and youngest daughter.

Have a kick ass week ya’ll!
