Some of you observant followers out there may have noticed that I have been going through books at a pretty good clip recently. It is due to a combination of the following reasons:
1) Summertime (i.e. no school, i.e. weather that begs to be spent on a deck/pool/beach with a book)
2) Nate studying every night leaving me all by my lonesome
3) A bum leg that is limiting the amount of running/exercise etc that I can really do
4) There are so many good books on my shelf that literally beg me to be read.
So for those of you who are seeking out there wondering if I actually liked the books I have read here is the moment you have been waiting for...
Curl up and Read It:
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle
Still Alice
Little Bee
Not For Everyone:
Candy Girl
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (I really liked this one, but I it is different)
One Fifth Avenue
Turn the Page:
Dear American Airlines
The World Without Us
*Both of these books were dull, boring and could have been about 30 pages long.
I am currently reading Handle with Care, and while it is definitely a page-turner--it is also completely predictable in a Jodi Piccoult way...
If anyone out there has any good recommendations send them my way!
