Simple, right? One short book, a couple of hours and a blog entry. What could be easier? Well, I guess I&#8217;ll find out later because my wondering mind just flew away from me like pigeons out their cage and I read anything but what I told myself to. I&#8217;m hoping these pigeons will return home soon. In the mean time I hit the books not too hungrily. Well, I read <em>Tricky Tweanty-Two<\/em> by Janet Evanovich. Had the craving for something light and funny with some mild action. Her characters are like family by now and they crack me up each time I visit them with a book. Then I went to <em>Open Minds<\/em> by Susan Kaye Quinn Good story, clearly a YA book, but I do get into them sometimes. Quick read. Could have been better, but it kept me entertained. I love stories where people have special powers. Then I went to <em>The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August<\/em>. Good story! Complex take on the re-incarnation idea where people actually remember their previous lives and while they can make a few alterations to their new lives, they only live the precise amount of years, assuming they don&#8217;t get killed or kill themselves, which happens. The book, however, is pretty long, so I gave it a short break while I read <em>Love beyond Time: A Scotish Time Traveling Romance<\/em> by Bethany Claire. Not the best writing as far as time travel goes. Very basic, but good when trying to cleanse the palate\u00a0 from a complicated book. I am now starting <em>The Secret Keeper<\/em> by Kate Morton which is one of the challenge books. No doubt I will interrupt it\u00a0with something, but I want to at least start it. I am still looking for a book to pull me so heard I might cry when I finish it. Or at least make me want to dream about it. With that said, If anyone has any recommendations I am more that willing to give it a shot.
