I just finished Bitter is the new Black by Jen Lancaster. I really liked it and can't for the life of me figure out why it took so long to read..Onto the next...

Just finished The Pelican Brief by John Grisham. I loved it. It is actually ironic because it was about drilling in Louisiana and the endangered pelican. I really enjoyed the book and was typical of John Grisham...suspenseful.

On another note, this goal is turning into distant dream...

I just finished "The Sleeping Beauty Proposal" by Sarah Strohmeyer. It was a good light read. It was a girl's book and only took me a couple of days to read. I would recommend it if you are looking for something light and chicky :)

Having a baby has temporarily slowed down my reading. I need to get back on pace! Anyway, I just finished reading Lamb by Christopher Moore. It was a funny story about Christ's childhood. It started out good and I was laughing out loud. However, I thought it was slow reading from the middle on. But it was still funny and I did not think it made fun of any religion in anyway.

I just finished the King of Torts by John Grisham at about 5:30 this morning...I was up since 2:20 and couldn't sleep. What better time to finish a book? Not one of my favorite Grishams, but it was a Grisham none the less. It dealt with Big Business, so a little less my style. I am trying to read all of his books..

Just finished "Shutter Island" by Dennis Lehane. All I can say is Wow. If you have seen the movie, you know what I mean (assuming movie follows book). It was a slow start for me and I felt like I had skipped a chapter or something...I was really confused. But I plugged away and things fell together. I just can't believe the twists and turns that this book took. I thought I had it all put together until the last chapter....now I am totally confused!

Just finished "Three Cups of Tea: One man's mission to promote peace...One school at a time" by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin. I would highly, highly recommend reading it. There are so many facts and misunderstandings about Pakistan and Afganistan that I learned when reading this. If you get a chance, read "Three cups of Tea"
On to book number 9!
