I was so proud of myself because I actually finished my first book of the year early this January. It was Debbie Macomber’s Thursday’s At Eight. My mother-in-law gave me a few books to take home when we were in New York last December to spend holidays with them. Once we got back home I spent organizing the remnants of traveling, and put away holiday decorations. At night I would spend a couple of hours reading my book so I finished it in no time. I think 1st week of January. So now I’m working on my 2nd book of the year. it’s another Macomber story called Orchard Valley Brides. It’s taking me a while to finish it because I’ve been distracted with other things these days, like Word with Friends and Scrambles, perhaps? *Teehee*

So what is Thursday’s At Eight about? it’s basically about 4 friends who meet up at eight in the morning every Thursday. 4 different women, with 4 different lives and problems. I want to have 3 friends to meet on Thursdays, or any day, at about 12noon coz I like to sleep in on some days. It depends how stressed I am, haha.

This book 2, Orchard Valley Brides, is kinda slow for me. It’s actually 2 stories in one book. I’ve only read probably 25 pages of the first story. I’m going to try to read more this weekend coz it drives me crazy knowing I’m being slow with this. Another one of my quirks, of course.

So what are you reading this month? Do you have a list for the year?

After Emma Lyn ate a bowl of Fruit Loops, then chugged the milk down for breakfast, she led me to her room to read her a book of Elmo telling a story of his favorite colors. They of course consist of red, yellow, orange, purple and blue. After that book, she pretty much just kicked me out of her room so she could read alone in silence. I understood. I’m a bookworm myself and I prefer reading in a quiet environment.
