I have read the first 6 Harry Potter books....they mesmerize me! I'm behind, I realize.....
I received "The Last Lecture" from my Sissy.....it's by Randy Pausch....perhaps You have heard of him. This is the Carnegie Mellon computer science professor who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I have not finished this book, but so far it is an easy read and very powerful and profound. It's a good book to read when You (read: "I"!!!) think things are just horrible in Your [my] life. Half~way through, I have been moved to tears several times.
I also received "Pride & Prejudice & Zombies".... THAT should be interesting! <giggle>........and "The Lost Continent: Travels in small-town America" by Bill Bryson (did I mention this already? Or am I having a severe deja vu?).....at first, I thought the giver had already read it, as it had a coffee ring stain on the cover....then I realized it was part of the artwork! <giggling>
Additionally...but perhaps won't be of much interested here...CydKitty gave me (be still my heart!) "The Culinary Institute of America's Baking At Home"...........<sigh> In case You hadn't picked up on it, I adore baking!
I'll be immersed shortly!!
