I have read quite a few lately...

House of the Spirits I ended up not finishing... I got kind of bored with it.

I did listen to The House on Mango Street and it was wonderfully read by the author Sandra Cisneros.

I read The Memory Keepers Daughter by Kim Edwards but I didn't think it lived up to all the hype. I was disappointed in how the last 1/2 of the book came out and the ending seemed awkward to me.

For a fun light read I read Skipping Christmas by John Grisham, it was cute. I thought Tim Allen was cast appropriately for the movie Christmas with the Kranks.

Not sure what I'll read next.. still pondering that.
