I forgot how much I enjoy Emily's books. Enjoying the unexpected character depth with some of the players here.

I somehow skipped a book in the series. It isn't killing this one, but hope it doesn't ruin going back to read #6.

I am not even sure where I picked this up, but I'm really enjoying it. It is a fictional story surrounding the filming of GWTW. I have enjoyed being pulled into that!

I didn't really expect to be pulled into this book, but it has really captivated me. Now, I want to finish it so that I can watch the documentary.

Really enjoying this one!

So far, I think it is going to be a solid 3. I am enjoying it, but after finishing a Greg Iles book, it just can't compete. Maybe I'm not far enough past the point where I need to look back and change something. I don't know. I'm enjoying it, and I look forward to finishing it. But, I think it probably qualifies as "easy, beach read."

Going back to pick up the ones I missed in this series. It is pulling me right in!

It has been a bit since a book has pulled me in so quickly. I am tearing through this one.

Look! It is Barry the Bellboy!

I'm not going to get any sleep until this is finished. I'm going to be a zombie.

I've been pulled quickly into this one!

I'm really enjoying this one so far.

I'm listening to this. It is moving slow. I don't know that I'd get very far in a book. With the audio, I'm trapped in the car. It is a good story, but either I am missing the point...or there just is not one. Maybe it will be revealed as I progress. I'm on disc 3 of 11.

I find these more interesting when I listen to them. Something about the style of writing. The stories are good, but I struggle with them in print. I've enjoyed listening to this one though in the car.

I've just started, but am glad to see that Moehringer's novel appears to be as well done as his memoir.

I'm enjoying the short stories. I feel we might be kindred spirits.

It's been a long time since I picked up one of his novels. Feel like I'm meeting up with old friends.

I'm enjoying this. I like her conversational tone. I saw complaints that she can take a point and elaborate too much. I don't feel that way. I love the detail she goes into. Listening to this in the car, enjoying it. I read the sequel to this prior to reading this, but I don't think it spoils anything.

I'm enjoying this. My only complaint is that it is such a large book that it is tough to read in the bath or carry in my purse! But, I am REALLY enjoying it.

It is my hope that this book makes me more compassionate and inclusive--remind me that nobody should be invisible.
