A Day’s Read

Written on July 21, 2002 – 11:16 pm

Well, I tried really hard, but just couldn’t get into the book I was ready, so I’ve put it down for now and started The Woman Next Door that I got from Sue-Ellen. It hooked me from the very start and I couldn’t put it down. It was fabulous. I was rooting for Amanda and Graham. Was sure it wasn’t a neighbor that had fathered Gretchen’s baby and wondering if Karen would totally snap.

This book kept me so riveted that I couldn’t stop reading. And I’ve just finished it, satified with the way it ended. I’ve read so many Barbara Delinsky books in the past and have loved every one. It’s been a while that I’ve read one of hers and I can say this was a welcome. I only look forward to reading more of her work. Thanks again, Sue-Ellen….this one was fabulous!

So I’ve put my bookmark in the first page of The Nanny Diaries and plan to start it tomorrow. For now, I’m off to sleep. Tomorrow starts a busy week at work!

I hate not finishing a book and hope to get back to this other one maybe after I’ve read The Woman Next Door. That one hooked me as soon as I read page one. Those are the kind of books I love reading.

Oh yeah I almost forgot to mention. I went to the trade book store in town (where you turn in your books and get credit to get more). I had about $30 in credit and decided to use some. I got Just Friends and ended up not having to pay anything for it. Using my credit it came out to $.39. I didn’t have any cash on me and had planned on writing a check for what I thought would be about 2-3 dollars. So when the lady said it was $.39 I was like, “Oh no, I don’t have that.” The lady behind me was kind enough to give me the change and I ended up getting the book for free. And I still have like $26 or $27 left in credit for next time. Isn’t that so cool!
