Upcoming Events:
I am taking a blogging break for a little while. I am in the process of getting all of my challenges for 2011 picked out so you'll see a bunch of those posts.
Musing Mondays is hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading
This weeks question is:
Do you have any special reading that you do as it gets closer to Christmas? If so, tell us about it! And, if not, tell us why not!
I really don't have any special reading that I do the closer it gets to Christmas. Actually, because I work in retail and the Christmas season is EXTREMELY busy for us I find reading to be a great escape from all the chaos. It keeps me from going crazy on people...well for the most part anyway. I think this year I am going to try and get through Lonesome Dove again. It's long enough that added to the two YA books I'm going to try and re-read I think I should be well occupied this holiday season. :)
If your book group asked you to bring two (2) suggestions for group reads to your next meeting, what two books would you suggest? Why? I'm not really a member of a book club....Wish I was but things happen. If my book club asked me to bring 2 suggestions for books to read for the group I would suggest the following: Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry - Not only is it my current read (that I am throughly enjoying) it's a book that is written like a true western should be (were you immediately become so immersed in what your reading that by the time you absolutely HAVE to quit reading you've read a couple hundred pages.) Though this book is NOT for the faint of heart at 945 pages. Plus, I think it would make for interesting discussion! Sinner Takes All by Tera Patrick - Ok to keep things from getting to blah in the book club why NOT suggest a memoir by an adult movie star? I've read this book and I thoroughly enjoyed it and I think that it too would make for VERY interesting discussion!
