I couldn’t get past the second chapter. The language was way too descriptive – “let me picture some of this so I can stop tripping over your words!” is what I kept thinking. Plus I could tell the book wasn’t going to end happy and I just wasn’t in the mood for that.

Okay, stupid question. What is “GoodReads” – I’m intrigued. And how did you add this at the top of your page, I can’t figure it out!

A good book:
Three Cups of Tea, Greg Mortenson and Oliver Relin.
Check it out, I think you’ll like it.
Also, for a very fun and sinful romp, try The Other Boleyn Girl.
