1141116 Ok I've added two books! Are you happy?!?!?! Or is it making you mad that now I have an uneven number again? ;) hehehe Well, I'm actually off to do some reading! YEAH summertime! I cannot beleive that I can just pick up a book and read whatever I want to right now! Not that my school books aren't awesome. It's actually hard to decide what to read when you aren't told! hahaha. Ok talk to ya soon...

1142327 Hey Friend,

I started Les Miserable, but only got to the ninth page. Sarah was teething and well it was a bad day. I have aleady read Persuasion, it is one of my favorite novels by her. Don't forget to look for the character of Mrs. Smith (she is a secondary character, but I believe her to be just as important as some of the primary). Right now I am reading the Praxis series guide then I will be back onto Les Miserable.

Now on another note, after I talk to you last night Conrad and I talked till about 11:30. I know that is late huh, but it felt like an hour. From our conversation Ii have two questions one for you and one for your dad. when yah get back home give me a ring. Also what was the verdict on church for this sunday.

got to run tootles :)

1184322 Hi Ashley,

This site is really neat! It'll be great to stay in contact this way. It's so exciting that you're planning to start library school! Do you have any idea where you're going to study yet? I'm still loving school here in Green Bay, but I have at least 2 years left. I'm sure it will fly by though, and I'm looking forward to making the most of it!

I did read "Wheel of Darkness," and I have to say I was a bit disappointed. I thought it was an interesting concept...it just wasn't executed very well. Pendergast has never crumbled to any supernatural forces before, so I found it hard to believe that his character was completely consumed in this novel. I also didn't really like the isolation of the cruise ship setting. I like it when Preston/ Child weave the characters from various novels together. What did you think of the book, overall?

I am looking forward to the next one! Interesting news, you say? hmmm... You're keeping me in extreme suspense! :)

I hope all is well, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Nick

1142327 Hey, so i have not been on much. The fam is still here and Lisa is leaving in the morning. Guess what book my mom is reading "NIGHT."
I asked mom "how was are you liking it." She said, "it's alright"...lol. I thought she would have said something a little more than "it's alright," especially since she like history alot. She consumes everything that she can finds about the Holocaust. I guess we can forgive her, well this one time :). Ummk, call me tomorrow; I want to see if you are going to church sunday morning.

1141116 No! I'm not avoiding book club!!! lol coffee always sounds good. I can definately do that... :P Lyndzey is Eric's wife-to-be. I'm throwing her bachelorette party. It would be fin! Jason is doing Eric's that same weekend. They are going to be in Baton Rouge one night and then New Orleans the next night. So, we figured that would be agood days to do hers as well...It would suck to be all alone while your signifigant other was gone on their bachelor(ette) parties! Anywho, I'm actually going to relax for a minute or two right now. I might even read a bit! hehe Ok well, I'll talk to you tomorrow!

And yes, I should have kept a neat little book of all the books I've read over the years but alas I am too lazy. Anyway, on a different note, are you up still or did you go to bed?
