Gees, three blog posts in one day. What's going on here? I have been wanting to get back into reading. Easy to say, harder to walk the walk. I went on Google looking for the name of a certain author who wrote about the Royals (Kitty Kelley) and then I came across all these other lists of books that people should read. Titles like ...you should reread these books you hated in high school.
I wrote down a lot that I thought I'd like to try. Kind of embarrassed that I've actually read so few books in my life. Like the classics (and others). Library is closed and I can't keep going to thriftbooks.com every time I think I need a book. I've done that about three or four times already and then lost interest. So....
If anybody in Port Townsend or Hadlock has any of these books I could borrow, I'd sure appreciate it. I'd give it back when I'm done but I'm a slow reader so it might take a while. I end up falling asleep. But if I had a book on loan, maybe I'd be better at sticking with it. Here's my list:
Shop Girl - Steve Martin (I actually had this book once and never read it) Story of my life.
Palo Alto - James Franco
By Myself - Lauren Bacall
Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
The Divine Comedy - Dante Alighieri
The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini
As I lay dying - William Faulkner
The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
Frankenstein - Mary Shelley
Their Eyes were watching God - Zora Neale Hurston
The Royals - Kitty Kelley
The Family: Bushes - Kitty Kelley
His Way (Sinatra) - Kitty Kelley
I can come pick it up if you have one. And thank you!
