I wasn't planning to cry today...

Just started this tonight. Fascinating.

Seemed appropriate. Started slow, with a few too many "she's the type of person who always does such-and-such." But it's growing on me. Interesting - if not complicated- characters, a couple little mysteries to solve, and a budding love/hate relationship, or two, in the works.

I've decided I will spend this weekend in the Hamptons.

That's more like it.

Pushing through this one...I enjoyed her first book more, so far anyway. Failed relationship, unfulfilling career, ailing parent, mental illness, what's not to love? Don't read this if you're feeling depressed.

Finished book 2. Not great writing, but fast-paced and I genuinely want to know what's going to happen next.

Book 2, Chapter 8...well, I spent my evening at the Masked Charity Ball, how 'bout you?

Finished the first book of the trilogy. Not exactly what I expected. How in the world are they going to make this into a movie?!? A very guilty pleasure, certainly not great literature, but I couldn't put it down. And the ending was a surprise.

Test to see if Goodreads is posting to FB...
Also, I am looking forward to reading this. I enjoyed "The Lace Reader" very much.

Since I thin I'm the last person who hasn't read this...

Loved it! It's a quick read --- gets better and better as it unfolds.

"...I don't want to think about it, I want to drink about it."
Love that!

Two words: mud football.

It's slowing down a bit for me. I liked the beginning better. Stillinteresting. Lots of behind-the-scenes info.

I don't normally read nonfiction, but I'm 40 pages in, and I'm a fan. This is beautifully written.

How does she think this stuff up?!?
Anticipating how the storylines will come together...

Imaginative & descriptive. I'm really enjoying this book.

I've really enjoyed this book. I hope the ending is just as good. It's kept me guessing...I guess I'll find out tomorrow.
