Hi, that is AWESOME, Kyle!! My Mother-in-Law lent us her copy the last time we were in Auburn, looking for an apartment, and I really want to read it. I've yet to hear anything negative about so far!
BTW, is Kendra is an avid reader like yourself?

Awesome, I'm very happy to hear that, Holly!!

That's great, you have no idea how good it is to know that she's an avid reader, as well.:) I only wish Tanya would read more!
And she's a bit of a King fan, too!!
I want to see the film once I'm done with the book. One of my favorite actresses, Sissy Spacek, is in it!

How are you doing today, buddy?"
I am GREAT! Thank you for asking! How are you today?

I'm doing fine. Started a great new book today."
Oh yeah? What's it called?

Yes, Carrie and Coal Miner's Daughter are fantastic! I'd watch anything with her in it!

The Old Man and the Sea
I enjoyed this book. At 127 pages, The Old Man and the Sea was a quick read. I managed to read the entire novel in just under an hour. It was a touching and thought-provoking tale. I admired Santiago's determination and his refusal to let his spirit be broken. I loved Ernest Hemingway's writing style. I thought it was very similar to John Steinbeck's style (who is my favourite author by the way). Although it is a very short novel, the story got quite slow and repetitive in places. It is a good novel but I honestly didn't think it was worthy of the Pulitzer Prize it won in 1953.

Lean Mean Thirteen
I enjoyed this book but I didn't think it was anywhere near as good as the previous instalment, Twelve Sharp. The plot was predictable and virtually nothing happened in it to develop the characters further. I'm getting tired of the love triangle with Joe Morelli and Ranger and I wish Stephanie would finally choose one of them or else dump them both and date someone new! Janet Evanovich has let this go on for far too long and now there's no sexual tension left between the characters.

Now I'm halfway through




Tonight or tomorrow I'm going to read a new novel coning out in June called Her Boyfriend's Bones.

I am really wanting to take my time with ADwD; since another book doesn't come out until 2015, but it is getting too hard. I guess I will just go ahead and finish it. :(


I really, really wish I could join you, bro. I hope you enjoy HoL.:)

Hey, have you started this yet?? If so, are you liking it? I read it in high school, and actually should do a re-read of it.
