Notes in the Margin

Hello Bookish Friends!

I've been a bit under the weather but things are looking up.  I finished two books but I won't be posting review about them. The first was WATER FOR ELEPHANTS which I read for book club.  I have been saving this book for awhile and I was convinced I would love it. I really didn't like it.  That was so surprising.  I felt the main characters had been stolen from SOPHIE'S CHOICE and this bothered me so much that I couldn't get past it.  The other book read was Sarah Addison Allen's GIRL WHO CHASED THE MOON which was a very sweet, quick, cozy read.

I am currently working on MATTERHORN by Karl Marlantes and THE SOLITUDE OF PRIME NUMBERS by Paolo Giordano.

Other than a few Young Adult titles, nothing new has landed in my mailbox. This will give me some time to catch up on my current pile of ARCs.

I find myself really longing for warmer and DRIER weather. I'm ready to spend some time outdoors with Noodlebug.  I hope you are getting some sunshine wherever you are.

How sad about Water for Elephants - I think that would have bothered me too - especially as I love Sophie's Choice.

Happy reading
