I recently received this book to review which I will be doing in more depth in the coming weeks but I am enjoying it so much I just wanted to share the details of it with you now. It's rare you find a book you are truly compelled to share but this one I am so here's a little info on it from Amazon.
Product Description
Lucy Springer thinks she's got it tough. She's living through renovation hell, her two kids seem more challenging than ever, and her once successful acting career has been reduced to the odd commercial. Then Max, her husband, absconds to Bali with an unknown companion and things go from bad to disastrous. But Lucy doesn't give up easily. Juggling increasingly chaotic building dramas, bewildered children, her crazy best friend/agent Gloria, and her ever helpful mother with chasing after Max, Lucy Springer is determined to get her life onto an even keel and more. This delightful new novel is an often hilarious account of triumphing over adversity, following your dreams and listening to your heart.

by Charlaine Harris to come into the library. Finally it did, just in time for me to finish it before we head out on our vacation in July. I was so excited to read it because each Sookie novel has had me on the edge of my seat to read the next one.

by Manjula Naraynan brings one question to my mind. Why do we lie to our children? Let me be clear, I fully believe in fairy tales and the amazement of imagination as a matter of fact I have two fairy tattoos on my back along with the word Believe. But there is a big difference between make believe and flat out lies.
was all I had hoped. I had read a couple of the stories already in other collections but it was great to reread them in chronological order in this book.
by Mark Morris at the library to take care of two reading challenges, The Doctor Who Reading Challenge and the Time Travel Reading Challenge and also just because I want to read it. I really love Doctor Who and the more novels I read the more I fall in love with him and the whole mythology to The Doctor. The novels definately add to the whole Doctor experience so do yourself a favor and read one, or two, or three....
by Dianne Nelson for review recently and the very moment I saw the front cover I knew it would be an emotional read. It lived up to that first impression.
by Jim Stallings (admittedly a while ago) for review.
by Nancy Dreyfus recently for review.

by John Hodgman through my local library's Overdrive system. If you aren't sure if your library uses Overdrive then you should definitely ask, it's an online database that allows you to download titles for listening and reading right from home using nothing but your library card. It doesn't cost anything and you get to check out the titles for 14 days then they automatically erase but you can always check them out again if you aren't finished yet. It's great!
aims to show us the little things (and sometimes big things) that determines who beats the odds and who surrenders when facing a crisis.
by Suzanne Davis Marion for review. 
by David Chernoff for review. Weirdly enough it took me a while to get started on it, I have no idea why other than I was kind of intimidated. In one way who doesn't want a manual for living? In another way what if the words in this book really do hold the meaning of life?
Charlaine Harris works her magic. I was pulled into the story from the very beginning. So much happened right up front that I was instantly invested.
Charlaine Harris gives us the best Sookie short story I've read so far. I mean who doesn't want to go to Dracula's birthday party?
