When I started reaching this year, my goal was 5 books a month. I was slightly over optimistic. In January and February combined, I only read five. March was much more productive, reading four books. I am still a sucker for Nicholas Sparks. At the recommendation of my friend Shannon, I read A Bend in the Road, her favorite by NS. It was great. I sobbed - no surprise with a sappy tear jerker.
The Art of Racing in the Rain was an incredible take on some of life's most difficult moments. While I do not have an experience to which I related with this book, I couldn't put it down. Told from the canine point of view, the author continued to surprise me with creativity and subtle insights which I can only image a dog would conjure.
Superfreakonomics was as I expected. A good friend of a different persuasion found out I was reading it and suggested I read the book review instead. Either way, if you like quirky information and facts about societal tendencies, you will find this book interesting.
What have you been reading lately?

ReplyDeleteyou should read 'the help' - really good.
That was the first book I read in April! I loved it. I am now onto a shorty: Michael Pollen's "Food Rules"
