Flipping Pages: library loot
I dropped by the library hoping to get a copy of Men & Demons by Dan Brown. Its the precursor to Da Vinci Code which I really enjoyed. They didn’t have it but I got 1 book by Maeve Binchy/Evening Class, 2 by Sophie Kinsella – The Undomestic Goddess and Shopholic & Sister and 1 by Joy Fielding/Whispers&Lies. Joy Fielding is a Torontonian and featured in Toronto Life so I decided to check her out. Easy read. In her first two books: common threads of abused wife, murder and lesbian lovers. I wondering if this also exists in the 3rd book that I am going to read now. I really should be reading the Japanese tour books that David bought instead.
I usually go to the library after the gym. I notice this weird sensation after being on the treadmill for 35min. When I got off and starting walking, I felt that I was floating off the ground. Must be an after effect from being on the treadmill.

There will be lots of time for reading those Japan tourbooks on the long flight to Osaka!

Wow Diana you’ve been busy. The site looks great. I think the precursor Angels & Demons. Have you read the first 3 Shopaholic books. I think it’s better to read in order. I hate to admit it but there was a lot of me in book 1, “Confessions of a Shopaholic”. Think the best of Sophie Kinsella’s books is “Can you keep a Secret”.
I do love Maeve Binchy. There have been a couple of her books I started reading and could not put down. Pulled an all-nighters to finish. This was pre-stamping of course. “Tara Road” was one of these. I think the recent move, “The Holiday” stole it’s premise from “Tara Road”.
