Re: (...)
I don't think I'm giving anything away here...at least I hope not. I just need to vent here! I just want to know who came up with the idea for this bookclub, and who picked the book Tenth Muse?
Let me at 'em!
I took off today because I was sick and went to the doctor. As usual, I took reading material for the long waits...The Tenth Muse, which I had just started reading. Thanks to you, dinner was very late because I was reading. It is now 12 midnight and I had to make myself put the book down, the urge to finish it tonight was so strong!
Now step up you! Not to mention the LONG list of books I must now purchase, mentioned in the book! Step up! I know you're out there!
All kidding (well not completely) aside, I can't wait for the review!

HA! I think I'm single-handedly supporting Amazon looking for the books I marked in the 10th Muse. Just rec'd their joint effort, The L.L.. Bean Book of New New England Cookery. by Judith and Evan Jones
Of course, I'm buying them used, so I'm not supporting Amazon in the manner they have become accustomed...

The book is one of those that once you get started you can't put down----I know I read the whole thang in one sitting----the day and all else was lost!!! (Except for dinner----Peter MUST have dinner!!!!)
Can't wait for these reviews!!!! What a fun and entertaining read!!!

I love Amazon's new and used prices! My kids had such a huge list of books they wanted this past Christmas, that's where I went to get them. Every one of them has been in almost new condition, a small smudge on the cover doesn't matter to us, within minutes, it will have a coffee or soda splash on it anyways (or wine, who would that be
)
