Hooked!?!

I tried to read Erma Bombeck's stuff. I tried. I love her quotes, and I find them to be quite true to life and actually humorous but, her stories just don't grab me and pull me in. I've deleted most of her from my Goodreads list - except for this one. Sorry Erma.

I started reading this new author though. Well, she's not new but, she's new to me. Debbie Macomber. She's written this Cedar Cove Series that I just love! I have 3 left to read to get caught up and the newest doesn't come out until September of 2008. I've found I can plow through a book, in about 3 hours - drives Jeremy crazy!

When I'm done with the Cedar Coves, I'm hoping to start the Navy Series, and then the Dakota Series, and then the Blossom Street Series. (Stop laughing, Em!)

And then I want to start on Emily Giffin. Ember and Kate are both reading her now and from what I gather - they're both digging her books and since we seem to have similar tastes...I'm pretty sure, I'm going to like Emily too!

I have been to the library 4 times in the past week. They're starting to recognize me and it's a different person at the counter every time. I didn't used to like the library. I had to be quiet. I couldn't find anything in there and I had to be quiet. So, have I told you - I LOVE our library!?! I can logon to our library's website and keep a list of books I want to read, I can put books on hold, the librarian will pull them, call or email me, and I come and pick 'em up, read them and take 'em back. I know this is fairly common now but, I still love it. The best thing...it's FREE! (Might be the only reason Jeremy hasn't staged an intervention)

Do I sound like an addict?

  1. Hmmmm...you have me thinking I need to check out Debbie Macomber. I've heard of her, but I've never tried any of her books. The Cedar Cove Series looks like it would be right up my alley though.

    Also, I seriously, seriously, need to start going to the library. I have no excuses, I could walk there over my lunch hour. The only thing holding me back is that I'm a chicken shit. That whole "trying something new" thing - it gets me every time!

  2. Ok, I'm going to have to look up this Debbie Macomber you've been reading on GoodReads. You are a reading MANIAC, woman! :) You crack me up...
