Oooh! I'm reading that one now too! I had wanted to be done by tonight, but life has gotten "in the way" so maybe by Tuesday :-)

It's one of those books that I thought I must've read in high school; but now that I am reading it, nothing is even vaguely familiar. Either I've completely blanked it out of memory; or I never read it and my knowledge of it has been vicariously rendered from common references! "Tom Sawyer" and Huckleberry Finn" were like that for me too! :-)

Somebody stop me! I am still buying new books and my mount TBR is worse than ever:)

[sympathetic nod of the head] :-)

Have exactly same problem.Im sure ones TBR pile shouldn't be in the hundreds especially not in ones eighth decade.lol

I have just finished Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen. A little bit of romance was good for my soul :)

Madam, I pray I maintain the ability to continue reading like you, past my eighth decade someday! May I compliment your technology use? My parents are in their sixth decade and don't use computers, let alone social forums.

Well I am not that old I am afraid. Only 42 :)

Ebru I meant Daphne but lovely to say hello to any bookie along the way. I just reached your decade. ;) I've set up my own camp in 'Ararat' and bid everyone to enjoy. Carolyn.

I had read Shopaholic Ties the Knot but did not mention it here. Yesterday I was done with Glass Castle.

I have read Q is for Quarry
