Book Fifty Five
Day One Hundred and Ninety Five
Barbara O'Neal "How to Bake a Perfect Life"
398 pages
I thought this book sounded interesting in the new book section at the library. When I was just on Shelfari to post it I realized I already read a book she wrote before I started this project. And I believe I liked it. So... off I go to enjoy the 55th book. Cruising right along...
Just a girl who loves to read wondering how long it takes to read 500 books... and wondering even more what she'll have learned when she's done.

Elin Hilderbrand "The Island"
403 pages
Oh how I loved this book. I truly love her writing. Nantucket was a summer vacation spot for a few years in my family. It holds really fond memories for me and I love anything even mentioning the island. The characters in this book were all going through something emotional... something that was distracting them from having the best time they could. I was so interested in everything they were going through. I'm sad its over. Finished it late last night and was too tired to post.

I'm a huge fan of her books... I've read them all. I don't even know what this one is about but I'm sure it will be good. Tonight the man is out at a concert and then to watch March Madness with friends... so I will read in silence... my fav!

I loved this book! I even emailed the author halfway through to tell her how much I was enjoying it and I never do stuff like that. I remember really liking all her other books... I hope she puts them out faster than she has been.

I adore her books... it's been a while since she put one out. I found out while being obsessed with Jen Lancaster that they are friends in real life. Which I love because Jen's hysterical... and awesome. Let's go Stacey... entertain me.

James Patterson "Tick Tock"

This was another great book... though it kinda freaked me out. His stories are usually frightening but this one was very graphic... I feel like its giving psychotic people a manual. But it did what it intended to do. I was on the edge of my seat and couldn't stop turning the pages.

So boring....I didn't want to stop reading a book but I almost couldn't help it. I didn't care about anyone and now that I'm done I don't even know what the point of this book was.

This book was fantastic. Another home run for her. I love so much the care she puts into explaining everything. You are never quite sure what's going to happen. Already sad I have to wait another year for her next book.

I loved it! I was a little lost with some of the characters because as I said I haven't read the whole series but this book definitely makes me want to go back and start at the beginning. There was a preview for his witch book in the back... just not my style James... even for you.

It was surprisingly good. I know Howard made fun of him a lot and said it was really boring. I figured part of him was joking but it could have been true. I didn't know he grew up in a household like that. I wish he would have talked about Artie more...

YAY! I love this series. Just a light easy amusing read. And you can already tell where we are going in the next book. Hated the movie made out of the first book... went about five minutes and couldn't do it.
