Still in the A section...

Loved the latest book. The Godmother by Carrie Adams is just a good, fun story about a young woman with a bunch of friends who are all married(she's single) and she is chosen by them to be the godmother to their children. Events happen that cause her to rethink her life & relationships.  Kinda Bridget Jones...but different. Would make a good movie!

Comment about Library A to Z

If I'm going to keep reading books from the library I'm going to have to buy myself one of those hazard suits. Books from the library are so FILTHY!!!! Crud spilled on them and other stuff I don't even want to think might be. Pages stuck together with what I hope is taco sauce, what looks like somebody wiped their finger-picken' nose with the page and maybe got dropped in the toilet! It's a good thought to get books from the library, but isn't there some way to take care of these books? UGH!!!

Same day, different book in Library A to Z

CRYING WOLF by Peter Abrahams is a book I thought had a lot of promise, but in the end decided not to continue reading. Stephen King calls Abrahams his "favorite American suspense novelist." It started out interestingly enough, but after awhile I realized I needed more than a silly suspense book with one wigged out character I really didn't like. The main character is okay, but I had the feeling it was going to end up being one of those books like a slasher movie. I am not interested in scary stories and crazy people right now, but those who are might find it a fun book. Well written.

Further Adventures of Library A to Z

SAFFRON DREAMS by Shaila Abdullah is the first book I've read by this author. I almost didn't read it, but decided to when I found out it was about a Muslim woman who loses her husband in the tragedy of 9/11. Her experience was every bit as tragic as any other person who lost a loved one there except it was made worse by the feelings expressed by those who saw her and equated her with those responsible. It's a lovely book and hope it will be read by many people who want to find out more about the hearts and minds of Muslim men and women.
