Books
So I’ve actually read a few more books than my sidebar would have you think. Here they are along with my thoughts and recommendations. Also, for any Sophie Kinsella fans (Shopaholic series) she has a new book out now. I’m excited!

You are a reader and I love it. I haven't read as much as I like to lately because of time and it is hard for me to put books down and I need my sleep from working all day...but I love books as well and am glad my mom taught me to love and enjoy reading.
"Speak" sounds like a great book, I will definitely have to check it out. As for the Bourne books, Mike has now read them all and really liked them for the most part. I was as astonished as you about the character Marie. Mike said they couldn't be more different from book to movie. Also: I just bought a copy of "Atonement" because I LOVED the movie. I hope it's better than "Chesil Beach". Eeek! Thanks for the book review, keep 'em coming!
Oh yes, and I need to read "Capture the Castle". All on my lists for this year!
Ann: I can understand the late night reading. Tim is always asking me why I don't take more time with my books--it's because I want to know what happens!!
Megan: I still think I'm going to try Atonement. Another friend who didn't like Chesil Beach said she liked his other books. Let me know what you think of Atonement--I'm interested to hear.
Thanks for the great book reviews you have peeked my interest. Silas Marner is an awesome book and I love it I can't wait to here what you think.
Oh good, more recommendations! Thanks! I loved the snowman, and the new haircut! Looking good in Idaho!
Katie,
Have you read "Wicked"? I just started reading it and I'm not loving it. Just wondering if you read it and if it is worth continuing. Thanks for the opinions on the other books. :)
Steff,
Everyone has warned me off of Wicked so I've never read it. I'd say stop reading it if you don't like it. The broadway play is a lot different--much better. (Or so I'm told, I haven't seen that either).
I'm making your "creative cookies" I've spread the word and a bunch of my friends are going to be giving them to their husbands too. :)
Thanks for the advice on the book. I did stop reading it. There were some "interesting" parts in the beginning and I didn't want to keep reading if it continued on the same way. Sounds like I made the right choice.
That's awesome that you are making those cookies. They are hilarious. I'm sure Tim will like them. :)
I'm so glad you liked Speak. And did you know that Capital Theater is doing Wicked in their 2008-09 season? I'm already planning on spending the night on the sidewalk if I need to, to get tickets.
