December! What are you reading?

[mellenhead]

I'm sorry Silvia! Now you will know to stay away from anything I like!


I finished up The Love Song of Jonny Valentine by Teddy Wayne. It was pretty good. Funny but sad in parts, it's easy to see that this could be the real life of some of these kids pushed into fame at a young age by their parents.


Now I'm reading From Scratch: Inside the Food Network by Allen Salkin. I'm enjoying it so far.

I'm reading Perfect by Rachel Joyce. I'm about a hundred pages in, and it's so good!

Finished up From Scratch: Inside the Food Network. It was really well written and interesting. Also changed my opinion of Bobby Flay being a douchebag.

I was going to start The Rosie Project but I just got a notification that The Goldfinch is on the hold shelf. I've been dying to read it.

I saw someone reading the Goldfinch on the beach today.

I finished the Jodi Picoult and Sister by...I can't remember. Rosamund someone. It was alright.

Now "As husbands go" by Susan Isaacs. It's good. A bit babbly at first.

[Blush]

I finished the Susan Isaacs and I found it quite enjoyable.

Now I'm onto another one but I can't remember how title.

Didn't realize my library was closed 12/31 and 1/1 so I still don't have my grubby hands on the Goldfinch.

So, I read The Rosie Project. I wasn't really a fan and wouldn't recommend it.

I have Want Not and may read that as I don't know when I'll manage to get to the library at this point.

The title of the book I have is, "Is this Tomorrow" by Caroline Leavitt. It's pretty good so far and I should be done today so I can leave it behind at the Towel hut.
