I am not being dramatic when I say: I think bookstores may be my favorite place in the world. (Next to a beach, my bed and my grams house of course)The first reason is that no matter how sloppy, fugly and mismatched I am, I will always, ALWAYS get hit on in a bookstore (shout out to borders on 33rd and 7th). Now, I don't entertain the men who hit on me, I politely reject them of course but its still an ego boost to get approached on the pick-up tip no mater how old, fugly, sloppy and ...

Goodness.I want so much to dissect little bits (and big bits) of this book, but I won't for fear of ruining it for those of you who have yet to read it. I hope what I put here isn't so much that it messes up the experience of the book for you.Must say though, I loved this book something awful. (that's a good thing)Liz Gilbert is ...
Decluttering and Book Challenge
Well, I told you about my challenge/goal to throw away 50 things. And I've been making an effort, honest. I'm up to nine now! TOSSED!! And I scoured my house for all books I could toss and found.....a whopping...ZERO. I guess I'm good at giving away books once I read them. I only keep the non-fiction ones that I'll read over and over. I did however find these unread novels hidden away in my credenza: My new challenge is to actually READ these books before years end. I go through ...
