Authentically Mine

I was bopping around blogland tonight and happened upong A Work in Progress, this great blog all about books, written by Danielle.  The first post I read was Book Tour, a photogrpahic narrated tour of all of the books in her house, both read and waiting to be read. It left me feeling giddy...all those books...so little time. I thought I had a good book collection, but it pales in comparison to A Work In Progress' collection.

Instead of being envious of her books, I decided to get a cup of tea and see what I could find to add to my list of what to read "next". I was easily able to add two or three from her list to mine. The first being the Human Traces by Faulks.

What good blogs or books have you read lately? 

 

The Literary Mouse - as my URL now states - should apparently get back into reading to earn her keep of the name.

Yesterday I picked up Second Glance by Jodi Piccoult. My goal is to get my a$$ off the computer enough to read it by March 18th.

Someday soon I will also add the link to my sidebar that will link to my Virtual Book Shelf on Facebook, and while I am at it possibly one that will link to my flickr account as well.
