I am in LOVE!!!!


With this book!! I had been wanting to read it ever since I saw the Oprah show about the book a while back. I had made a mental note of it as one of the books I wanted to read. Yesterday, the kids and I were waiting for Miguel at Target while he went to donate blood and I found it. I picked it up read the first page or so and was immediately HOOKED! I was kind of weary about paying $12 for it since the last book I bought..."A New Earth" was a total BOMB!! And it "seemed" so interesting when I saw the Oprah show about that book too, but boy was I wrong! I know alot of ppl read it and raved about it and how it changed the way they saw certain things, but I did not like it...at all....I felt like I was reading some book for school with alot of BIG words. Not that I don't understand big words...lol...it was boring me...it did not hold my attention. ANYWAY...I am sooo loving this book. And the writer whose witty, sarcastic sense of humor reminds me of me. And while I'm on that subject, so many things I've read have just "hit home"...BIG time! I can TOTALLY relate. Some things she writes about describe things I've experienced or am experiencing right now to a "t" and that's kind of freaky and reassuring. Anyway, I'm like on page 90 or something and just can't put it down. I'm thinking I will probably finish reading it this week. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it.

I also was wondering about this book, since I've seen it around. I don't watch Oprah, so i have no idea what she said about it. Now I've got to know!!!
