I just started listening to Inkheart (like to listen to books while sewing)...that might be good?

When I need "brain candy" I frequently return to Mrs. Pollifax (Dorothy Gilman)...Joanne Fluke's Hannah Swensen mysteries are pretty fun too.

oooh, I hope you decide to read "Beauty: A Retelling of Beauty and the Beast"...it is by my favoritest author ever (which for me, is saying a lot...) it's possibly my second favorite book (my favorite book is also by the same author, and might be one you'd like, it's called "The Blue Sword").

Yup, Kara, that's what I read. I loved it. Funny thing is that I read another rendition of Beauty and the Beast with my 5th grade class the week after I read that one. They were really similar!

Then I read Bud, not Buddy and I loved that.

Now I am reading The Help and can not put it down. I can't wait to go to bed at night and read!
