Kristin how did you like the book?
Ehhh - I wasn't too fond, it was super long and some parts I could feel that it was based on Laura Bush and at times I felt like it was pure fiction, wish they hadn't used her as a base for the book.Jencey wrote: "Kristin (Kritters Ramblings) wrote: "Task Completed 10.3 American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld

The second one was really good too! I can't remember where I got the copy I read from. I think Tara might've bought it and I borrowed it from her.

I looked it up on paperbackswap but didn't see it... Amazon has it if I want to buy a real copy, I was hoping to find it for my kindle, but I might have to just buy it from amazon as my library doesn't have it either.

5.3 May Flowers – If You Were Here - Jen Lancaster (May)
10/40 books
45/360 points
Just as great as her memoirs! Totally loved it, when it comes out in paperback next year (cuz I don't really like hard covers), I am totally embarrassing myself at Target again at 8:10 am to get it. ;)
And I am so close to finishing so many tasks, just one book left to read for three of them. It's so frustrating that I can't read more than one book at a time!
