The Book Juggle!

I am reading 3 books at once....

Trespass I need to get back to the library and am currently paying fines, but I may return and mark my spot to get another copy.

Thunderbolt Kid is for book club next week and figured I should start it.

Still reading the long Pillars of the Earth...

Work Book Club

A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle was our book. No one read it!

The person who picked it lost her copy and everyone else are still on the HOLD lists at the library for over a month and still haven't received it.

So maybe some of us will read it for next month.

Made for a short meeting :-)

Miss Julia Throws a Wedding

by Ann B. Ross

This is book 3 in a series. The first 2 books were just delightful and funny and quick reads. This book seemed to drag along a bit in different spots. I started this a few months ago and decided to pick it up between books to finish up. I love the Miss Julia character but this book seemed to take so long to get to the meat of the book, the wedding! I hope the next book Miss Julia Hits the Road is back to the fun filled fast moving Miss Julia I am used to.

3 out of 5 rating (not as good as books 1 and 2)

Loving Frank

by Nancy Horan

If you like Frank Lloyd Wright I'd suggest reading this book. It is historical fiction built around Wright's love affair with Mamah Cheney in the early 1900s. It has a lot of interesting things to look up about his architecture and history. I really enjoyed the book, however some points in the middle where she is alone seem to drag a bit.

Great read for the female Wright fans at least :-)

4 out of 5 (great read!)
