Book Review: Snow Flower & The Secret Fan

Posted by Candy July 31st, 2008

I finished Snow Flower & The Secret Fan last night. I think I read at least 150 pages as a total yesterday. I read like a mad woman when the Pest Guy was spraying the house and then I read like crazy for a while after I got home from work as well. I just [...]

Book Review: Flying Changes by Sara Gruen

Posted by Candy July 16th, 2008

I finished this book today and it was such a great book. I read it after I finished Riding Lessons. I got really into it last night and I read a couple hundred pages all in one sitting. I just couldn’t sit it down! Every time a chapter would end, I would have to [...]

The One Where I Love Too Much

Posted by Candy January 9th, 2006

I got the new layout as fixed up as it is probably going to get. I tend to slack off a lot more than I ever did these days. Between taking care of two canine children and having a whole house to clean and take care of, I can’t seem to find time these days [...]

Book Review: Save Karyn

Posted by Candy December 2nd, 2005

I finally finished my book, Save Karyn. It was a great book and quite englightening :) I just had to finish it last night so I sat down on the couch and read and read until I finally got to the very last page. It’s about a girl in her late 20s who moves [...]
