What a week...

Again, its been a while, but what can I say, long trying days and short nights with little sleep...

Anyhow, so here's some food for thought: I love reading, I guess I always have, but in college was slightly derailed by all the textbooks. Since college, I have definitely dug in and read a good number of books, my current selection is The Shadow of the Wind by Juan Carlos Ruiz, an excellent read. I'm only about halfway through it, but I love it already. It's beautifully written with a complex intertwining story that keeps me turning the page. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new book. Other favorites are, of course, Nicholas Sparks. I've read all his fiction, leaving only his non-fiction Three Weeks with My Brother. I read the excerpt this morning, and I definitely have to pick it up once I'm done with my current read. I have also started reading Wicked by Gregory Maguire. It takes a little while to get into, but I've been told once you do, it turns out to be a great novel. Oh, and as I've mentioned before, Paulo Coelho has entered my reading repertoire. My next read from him will be Zahir. So as you can see, I have my hands and mind full with books and reading.

I'd be interested to know what any of your favorites/recommendations are. Leave a comment and I'll post the results. Toodles!
