Whew!
Some with the book club, some on my own. I could live in a book store and never get bored. On my way to my dream of owning a book store, I think I may make a pit stop and just work in one. You know, after I become independently wealthy.
Next on deck:
More Than it Hurts You by Darin Strauss. It’s a novel about a suspected case of Munchausen by proxy. Sounds interesting.
And for anyone who is still racking their brain trying to figure out what to get me for Christmas, scroll all the way down and look to the right to check out my book wish list.
Also, a nice bottle of red wine would be superb. Some of my favorites are: Shiraz, Meritage, Bordeaux and Pinot Noir. I do not usually drink Cabernet.
You’re welcome.

I love bookstores. I could get lost in there for hours. A book is always a good present!
