For the past few years I have been rather unimpressed with my literary choices. Yikes! That's a bummer since I love to read! After every book, I seem to say the same thing, "It's no Secret Life of Bees." Occasionally, I also say "And it's not The Red Tent." Of course, this book wasn't either, but I loved it anyway. It was lovely and it made me want to go to an art museum. It made me grateful for my life and curious about the lives of others. It inspired me to try to find more books that are not my old favorites, but wonderful in their own right...

I am currently reading The Historian. It is chocked full of history and intrigue and a little horror/fantasy. I love it so far! It is so thick (like The Other Boleyn Girl by Phillippa Gregory) but I find myself wanting to spend all my time reading it (which is impossible!). It does have a lot of descriptive detail which makes me want to visit the places it describes.
