Re: December! Whatcha reading?
I started reading Shonda Rhimes' "Year of Yes" back in the spring...I actually found it annoying because you can tell that she basically just spoke into a recorder and had someone just type it up...so even though what she's saying is wonderful, it makes for difficult reading. But, I plan t...

Re: It's February - what are you reading?
I am almost finished with She Got Up Off the Couch by Haven Kimmel (a sequel/follow-up to A Girl Named Zippy, which I never read ) After this I will likely go back to cheating on my books with magazines.

It's November - What are you reading?
What are you reading?
Me, I am reading yet another self-help book called Never Be Late Again and it gets into the psychological reasons for lateness . . . so far it is helping me be more concientious (sp?) and even more timely . . . so good stuff!

I'm reading Color and Money, which talks about affirmative action and elite college admissions. I'm reading it partly for business, partly for pleasure - good stuff.

Re: JUne now.. What you reading?
I just bought, Such a Pretty Fat by Jen Lancaster who also writes a blog jennsylvania.com. So far, it is pretty good. Okay, do you have to have read her other books or follow her blog in order to appreciate it? If so, I will have to wait until I get through her first book, which is still sitting on...

Re: JUne now.. What you reading?
I just finished Love you to pieces: creative writers on raising a child with special needs. It was very good. Very honest. At times, I didn't want to put it down because I was just enthralled but other times I had to put it down because the stories were so raw, it was hard to read. Loved it. Oh wow...

Re: JUne now.. What you reading?
I'm reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. It's good so far, but I'm already slightly regretting the decision to read it ... I just know that a lot of horrible things are going to happen and it will make me sad. That is an OUTSTANDING book. While it's certainly not "feel good&quo...

Re: Its Jan 2008 - what are you reading?
I'm reading Shoot the Moon by Billie Letts. Oh I love Billie Letts - how is it? I am reading Brother, I'm Dying by Edwidge Danticat, one of my faaaaavorite authors. This isn't gripping me the way her books usually do - maybe because it's memoir and not fiction. In any case, it's still a good read.
