What did you think of




I haven't done my review yet, but basically I thought it was quite fascinating as she talked about her research on marriage --- As to her own story as she relates it throughout the book, I get the feeling she never did get her peace with the issues of marriage, despite the sub-title of the book. And I found I didn't feel much sympathy with her situation after a bit. She came across as spoiled and very willful. That being said, I did find a lot in the book to like, but it is very different than EPL.

Interesting - I'm not hankering to read this one, but if it's available at the library for a $1, I will probably pick it up. Thanks for the info.


I'm wait listed at the library for this one - I am dying to read it.

So far I am really liking it. Kind of creepy.


I think that's the next ebook I'm going to read for free at B&N. I'm in the mood for a good mystery.

It has gone from fast read to very interesting. Not sure where this story is going.

Me, too, Susan - I'm really enjoying it so far, even though I'm only about 50 pages in - how about you?


Good luck with it Sera, I didn't enjoy it at all....

Linda, I actually liked this one, but I'm listening to



I would think it could be a boring book in audio. It will be interesting to see your review at the end. It had sections with lots of facts rather than story and I find those much easier to read in book form.

I'll keep you posted. So far it is only slightly dull; however, I'm hoping that it picks up soon. I really didn't want to know the history of marriage but there it was.... ha ha

Yep! That's pretty much what it is. Very interesting in some ways, but not what I had expected either.






I'm also reading

The Maryland Consortium usually adds new books the last week of the month. I normally check the site several times a week, but look a couple of times a day the last week of the month.





I LOVED that book, found it very hard to put down. I keep recommending it, and the rest of the series, to friends, and I haven't heard anything bad from anyone yet!





I'm also reading a Jo Nesbo, The Devils Star. Also unput-downable!
