.....

I would love to read Chris Christie's book after seeing him today on Morning Joe, but I just can't stand the thought of giving that bastard one penny of my money!

How about the library...free, and you can hand it back.

You can even go there, read the book at a desk or chair then leave it there, and have no written connection between Chris Christie and yourself, homoe.

I caved and am SO disappointed in myself, as well as the book!

I loved this book! It's short, only just over 100 pages but it'll keep you in stitches and it contains some of the other letters she forged!

Here we are having a book trade around to be followed by discussion. We are tackling Different Loving, SM 101, Screw the Roses, Send Me the Thorns. Should be fun.

just finished The Woman in the Mirror by Cathryn Grant. She has a series of this character Alex....a serial killer. Easy read and while it lacks heavy suspense it is feminist to the core. I like that...I may read more of her work. Besides who can resist a feminist serial killer???

After enjoying this book so very much I read Estee Lauder Beyond the Magic and Miss Tallula Bankhead but neither were nearly as enjoyable sad to say!

I will be reading Gentleman Jack: The Real Anne Lister The Official Companion to the BBC Series by Wainwright, Sally.

I guess I didn't realize it was coming from across the pond when I ordered it.

Breathless · 05-17-2019, 04:43 PM

I've been reading quite a bit lately, although I am not quite sure where I am finding the time.. lol..
Just finished.. Love Match by Ali Vali.. it was an okay read, entertaining but Ill probably forget it in about a week
Beauty and the Bitch by Shawna Hunter .. excellent read, had me smiling and laughing out loud a few times.. recommend..
Smoke and Water by ORIGIN authors, highly recommended. This one I will not forget for a long while.

It F I N A L L Y arrived and it was wonderful.......

The books goes into more details about the various affairs she carried on and some shall we say "one night stands" which she had more than her fair share of.. yup Anne got around! The book explains how the diaries were almost NOT published and who found them. If you're enjoying the series, I think you'll enjoy this companion piece.
