Only one week left before going back to work and into the "long, dark night" that is the school year. I am going to try my best to limit work to 55 hours a week, but it will be tough. What usually happens at this time of year (the last week) is that I read everything I can for fun to cram it in just in case I have no time for myself during the school year. So here is what just joined the shelf:
*Sea Fever by Virginia Kantra-paranormal romance
*The Armchair Economist by Steven Landsburg-need I say what it's about?
*Return to Summerhouse by Jude Deveraux-fiction about three best friends returning to Maine as grown women
*Best Hikes with Children: Vermont, New Hampshire & Maine-hoping to hike with YB and LB if it ever stops raining-this will be a return to hiking for me, as I used to do a lot of it but had to stop after lyme disease took over
*And last, I want to finish the trilogy by Paullina Simons: The Bronze Horseman, Tatiana and Alexander, and The Summer Garden-historic fiction that begins in 1940s Russia and ends up decades later in the U.S. (beautiful work by a Russian immigrant, for anyone that is looking for a truly gifted novel writer-the kind of books you put on a high shelf and don't lend out because they are keepers)
