I'm a little freaked out by how many of the same books we've read, and how many of them we have the same opinions on. I liked Wonder When You'll Miss me. I read Girl witha Pearl Earring a few weeks ago (in like, three hours) and thought it was really good (not what I expected-- another teacher at school asked me to read it because she'd loved it so much; I was thinking "Man, it's going to suck" because most of those 'everyone's reading them' books seem to). I haven't been able to get past page 4 of Moon Tiger. I own every single Marian Keyes book out there-- Sushi for Beginners is really good. And I got The Other Boleyn Girl for Christmas and I really enjoyed it-- then again I'm weirdly obsessed with Henry VIII stuff and especially those wacky Boleyns. Yay long comment! EEEK!

I devoured it. Yum. So Good! I just read The Devil Wears Prada at the beach the other weekend, total fluff book, but fun times. I'm not very good at dealing with violence in movies, TV, or books, but for some reason I can watch hours and hours of Law and Order SVU and not flinch. I think it's because I can knit while I'm watching. I just read Girl with the Pearl Earring too. I devoured it. Yum. So Good!

I need to read some more, but I'm stuck reading the stuff that I have to teach when school starts again. I'm definitely putting the ones you suggested on my "to read" list, though! Love your blog!

It's my absolute favourite book for going to the beach or as a pick up after a bad day at work. Honestly, I really think you will enjoy it -and it will make you laugh out loud! It's "quality" fluff! The Other Boleyn Girl is also fantastic. I am also a bit of a sucker for historical fiction and it's a great addition to my collection. I would also highly recommend her other book The Queen's Fool if you enjoy The Other Boleyn Girl. Oh I am so excited that you have all those books to read for the first time!

I'm going to have one of those one day... And doesn’t it feel sensational to have a clean, fresh bed “nook”.
