reading frenzy...

I haven't gotten any thing done the past few days because I've been reading like crazy...

I read this

I enjoyed it, but I don't really know "but" what? I like Nicholas Sparks, because his books are well, "nice". Maybe that's what the problem is, everything is just too "nice" you know? But if you'd like to read it free and you can't get a copy at the library, hop on over to paperbackswap.com, (see link to right). I so love that site, I know I keep saying that, but it's just so cool to get books in the mail, wrapped up like little presents that I didn't have to pay for...it just makes me go all gooey inside... and likewise the fact that my discarded paperbacks find happy little homes where they will be read again....ahhhhh



I also read this


and loved it loved it loved it....If you do want to read this, though I suggest starting with "You Slay Me" and "Fire Me Up" . This is book 3 in the Aisling Grey, Guardian Series, and Katie Macallister does not disappoint. I love it when a book takes me to a completely different world, unaware of what's going on around me like these books do.



You can jump in the middle and still understand what's going on, but you get the whole picture if you start at the begginning.





Which leads me to this the 4th book in the series....which I am almost done with. I'm kind of sad because I hate to see the series end, but Katie is continuing the "Dragon" stories with a new book coming in May, so I don't think we've really seen the last of Aisling.
and in a move very unlike me....I am going to send up a little prayer that the Colts beat the Titans, so that the Browns can go to the playoffs this year (they haven't been since 1994). Even though I'm not that big of a football fan, I am a hometown girl at heart

I've heard of those Katie MacAlister books before and I think I will get one from the library. You convinced me when you said, "I loved it, loved it, loved it!".
