Book 216 Done

Day 1260
JJ Abrams and Doug Dorst "S"

So good... I actually finished this a while ago but I was being lazy and not posting. This was really good... I cannot wait to read it again at some point to figure out some clues I missed. Reading books has always been a passion of mine (hence the blog) but I super appreciate someone coming up with a new way to read. A book with notes in the margin, inserts (including letters, pictures, napkins) that go with the story. So so good.

Book 216

Day 1248
JJ Abrams and Doug Dourst "S"

A friend told me about this book. Sounds really interesting. You are reading a fictional book that was written in the 40s. You are also reading notes and inserts between a college student and a graduate student that are trying to figure out a mystery surrounding the author. Pretty neat huh?

Book 215 and Done

Day 1248
Jacob Tomsky "Heads in Beds"

A memoir from a guy who has worked in hotels for years. Interesting stories and some good tips for getting free things at a hotel.

Day 1242
Jen Lancaster "Twisted Sisters"

A little weird but very funny... especially if you grew up with a sister.

Book 214 part deux

Day 1238

I never finished that other book and the library took it back. I wasn't particularly upset about that. Then I took a break from reading and now I'm back about a month later.

Jen Lancaster "Twisted Sisters"
Love her and this is the second novel she wrote. Ready to dive in...
