Drunk, Divorced, and Covered in Cat Hair, Laurie Perry

Having been through a terrible break up once or twice, this one really hit home. The author basically walks you through her divorce, and how she gets through it. Moving, cleaning out the prior life's junk, and getting back on her feet are the main points. It was a quick read, a bit dated at this point in time, but it was nice to read about another human being going through rough times and understanding exactly where they were at mentally. She learns to knit, and eventually gets back out there.

Heaven's Prisoners, James Lee Burke

I listened to this one on CD at work. This is the second (thank you for the correction Joy!) in the Dave Robichaux series from this author. I was slightly distracted by the narrator's voice at times, but all in all, a pretty good listen/read. I really enjoy the author's descriptions of the scenery and the weather. I am looking forward to reading/listening to the rest of this series.

Interred With Their Bones, Jennifer Lee Carrell

This one took me a while to get into. It was busy from the get go, but it just didn't really catch me until about 100 pages in. A lot of the information was way over my head (the whole Shakespearean theory/history deal), so I was a bit lost at times. What on earth is a first folio? Anyway, the characters for the most part were alright, but were seriously over the top at times. This book honestly reminded me of the movie "National Treasure".

So I'm not real sure on how the whole blogging etiquette goes, so I'll do each of my review's as a single item, really since I've seen others do this as well. I am a sort of conformist at times, so bear with me...

Newbie

OK, so this is my first post to my first blog. Let's see how all of this goes. I am creating this blog in order to join the online blogging book world. It seems I am behind the times, and for the new year, I'd like to try to catch up. I've not 'officially' joined any reading challenges as of yet, but am now hoping to since I've created this wonderful blog.
