I'm feeling the pressure here to get the books up that I've read in recent weeks.....Is that really necessary? I'm trying to stay in order but can't seem to stay up with it - considering that I finished a book on Friday, then one on Saturday and another one yesterday.....And I still haven't gotten the ones I read at the cabin up here! Yikes. I realize this is no contest and I'm only doing it for myself - I should be a little easier on myself. But I do find myself reflecting on my post as soon as I put the book down - so I'm not ready to give it up. I need to update the other blog to, I have lots of pictures to upload! I've been keeping up with priorities around here. There are only 3 weeks and 1 day until school starts and I'm taking all the time I can get with my kids seriously.....
Okay so on to this book I read - It was good, not a book I read through. It laid open for sometime, picked up sporadically here and there. The first book I read of Susan Wiggs was my favorite summer read of last year - Summer at Willow Lake. That was an awesome book. I've also read The Ocean Between Us and Lakeside Cottage - they were equally as good. I had originally bought Summer at Willow Lake at Costco and had gone to the used book store to find more as I liked it so much and was a bit shocked to find myself in the Romance section - Yikes! I hope no one saw me..... I don't think I've picked up a "Romance" book since before High School. I had a friend that lived down the street from me who's mother read all of the Harlequin Romance Novels - my girlfriend and I would read them after she discarded them - and I can't say I've read one since. Even at that young age I'd have to say they were a bit repetitive and somewhat boring.....Maybe I should reconsider my choices - the romance section had it's own room - could I be missing out on something......?
