Finally read another book!

Now that I'm on bedrest I have a lot of time on my hands. My cousin had given me a book to read and I finally got around to reading it Friday. Yes I read a whole book in one day except for the last 5 pages which I read the next morning. It's called "Between Sundays" by Karen Kingsbury. The book is about a boy who's mother dies and he ends up living with her best friend. His mother had told him his father was a famous quarterback for the 49ers so he sets out to find him and let him know he's his son. The book is also about the 2nd string quarterback who is very into his faith and is a witness to the 1st string quarterback (the boy's father.) After reading this book I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good read. I'm hoping to be able to read more of Karen Kingsbury's books.

The Undomestic Goddess

I had received this book with a few other "Sophia Kinsella" books a while ago. It's been a while since I've read something I decided to start on this one. I think I read it within a week, it was definitely one I couldn't put down.

The book starts out with a girl working at a high end law firm. A problem arises and she finds herself out of a job and when she goes out of town, ends up being mistaken for a housekeeper. Most of the rest of the book is about how she finds out what she really wants in life and what is most important to her. Defnitely a good book I would recommend reading if you're into the "chicklit" books.

Sisterchicks

I finally finished a book this month.....actually it only took me a week to read. I was in our local outlet store when I spotted this "Sisterchicks" book. It was only $1 and looked like a good read so I went ahead and bought it. It's called "Sisterchicks do the Hula."  It's about 2 best friends that go to Hawaii for their birthdays and end up on various adventures and reflecting on their lives. It's definitely a chicklit book but I've come to learn that those are my favorite. This is only one of a series of Sisterchick books  and I hope to find and read them all. If you are into chicklit books definitely read this!

4th Book

I've already finished my fourth book! It's the 2nd one in the Shopaholic series....Shopaholic Takes Manhattan. After reading this one I now realize that they also took parts of this book and put in the movie. It continues on the life of Rebecca Bloomwood and how she continues to deal with her "shopping" problem. I'll definitely be getting the next book....Shopaholic Ties the Knot!

3rd Book

I've finished my 3rd book already. It is the 1st of 3 that I bought together. It's about a girl who is obsessed with shopping and finds herself in major debt with her credit cards and also her bank. You'll just have to read the book to find out what happens. It's a good one!

2nd Book

I just finished my second book for my 101 list. I had seen it at a rummage sale and decided to go ahead & get it since it was only 50 cents. Can't beat that! It's called "The Truth about Diamonds" by Nicole Richie. It's mainly just about this girl who is big into drugs & partying and eventually cleans her life up. I really wasn't much into this book and had to push myself to finish it. It's going to be a book I put on my own rummage sale or donate to charity because I have no desire to read it again.

My 1st book

On my 101 list I have down to read one book per month. Yesterday I finally started one. I have been looking on ebay at several books I'd like to read but haven't purchased one yet. We were at Dollar General yesterday so I decided I'd check out what book they had. I found this one for $3 and it sounded like it would be good. I'm on page 17 so far and it's for sure one of those books I don't like to put down...unfortunately I've been pretty busy since I've started it so I've had too quite a bit. I'll be sure to review about it as I read more.



*Review*
I just finished this book this weekend. Overall, it was a good book and I would recommend it to anyone to read. It's about a woman who is married with 2 sons and whose mother has breast cancer. She also is intrigued by her mother's plastic surgeon. You'll just have to read the book to find out how everything evolves. ;)
