FINISHED my book!!!!

Just now, 6:24pm CST, finished In the Woods by Tana French. Overall, I give it a 8-1/2 out of 10. I don't want to give away the ending, so I must say I am a little disappointed. I feel somewhat jipped. The story was good. I cannot say the ending was boring. The last 100 pages totally kept me enthralled and I didn't want to put the book down. That's a good thing. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think if you like mysteries, police stories, you'll like it. The main character was interesting and complex. You'll love and hate some characters which I always like in stories. At the end, I don't know if I liked the main character, but I think that's what made the book good.

Okay, now what to read next. My next post will be the answer!!!

Self Help Book on my nighstand

I am currently reading Marianne Williamson's

Enchanted Love The Mystical Power of Intimate Relationships

. I absolutely love it. If you enjoyed

A Woman's Worth

then you'll love this book. I am going through some challenging times and this book has brought me back. I highly recommend it to those Marianne Williamson fans. Anyone else reading it or read it??

In the Woods........

Okay, on page 325 of 429, just over 100 pages to go. This is my last day on this book. HELP!!! I shouldn't say that because I liked it, I just miss the beautiful writing of Carlos!!!!! I'm so excited to pick my next book I just want this one done. H E L P !!!!!!

Favorite Book

I was just at one of my resale ships the other day and I love going through the books in resale shops. It made me think though. How many GREAT books are out there that I don't even know exist. What's your favorite book? Tell me why? I am big on picking books up where the cover catches my eye. Any book that has a book like cover on it, I'm a sucker for. For instance, the 13th Tale, Shadow Of the Wind. They both have dust jackets that are a book cover. I don't know why I always fall for those books or is it that they just catch my fancy. Please tell me what you favorite book is!

Embarrassed .....

Okay, I'm still on In The Woods. I'm soooo embarrassed! It's not that I don't like the book. It's great. I love it, okay, I like it, but I just read way too many at one time. What else am I reading??? I am so into Marianne Williamson's books. I am reading one on intimate relationships and it is really really good. I highly suggest it. It's about picking the right partner and finding love. Really it's more about finding love and holding onto the good ones! Is anyone out there???

My first mystery book

Okay, I have been off the radar lately, but back in full gear. I picked up my first mystery book and it was In The Woods by Tana French. Okay, I'm a little behind on the best seller list but it was at my favorite resale shop! I have fallen in love with this book. It is great. I have NEVER really been a big fan of mysteries, but this has really been a great experience. One of those books where you love the characters, Detective Rob Ryan. The story begins with a mysterious murder/abduction (you don't really know) of 2 kids. Then the story picks up 20 years later with another gruesome murder. It's a must read if you love mysteries and a great starter for your first one. I'm on page 172. So far, so GREAT! What's on my nightstand? In the Woods and I'm a little embarrassed to admit and slowly drudging through, Twilight. Sorry to all those Twilight fans, but I'm just having the hardest time getting myself through it! Next on my list? The Guardian by Nicholas Sparks and The Book Thief (my son's high school's book club has it on their list of books to read this year!).

Tell me what you're reading - someone please!
