New Feature

Hello All!!
There is a new feature, you may comment directly to someone's original post. If you notice in the lower right corner of the post there is a link with a number followed by "comments", you may click on the link and then comment on this specific post. I think this might make some of the posts a little less confusing and a little more organized. FYI--I posted comments on a couple of posts so check those out. If you are starting a completely new topic do it the same way as before.

Happy reading!!

Sorry I didn't make it today. I was OVERSWAMPED with Newspaper stuff. Plus, I only read like half the book. I just couldn't get into it. :-(

That's my writing site. I post my poems and snippets of stories there. Be warned, if you happen to go there, I don't hold back in my writing. Some of it is a little graphic, but those are always under cuts. You don't have to read them. :-) Any feedback on any of the poems I've written there are welcomed and appreciated.

On an actual book note, I just finished an absolutely dreadful book. I really didn't like the author...she just seemed to drag the story out. I didn't really enjoy the book. It was called "The Sinner" by Madeline Hunter. I don't know. She just doesn't do it for me.
What have people been reading? Anyone finish The Wish List, wht did you think? I would love to hear some feedback.

Just finished...
Dinner for Two by Mike Gayle

I enjoyed this book. It kind of reminded me of The Bridget Jones Diary but told from a male perspective and it was a lot cleaner (no swearing, etc.) Dave Harding is a music jounalist who really wants to be a dad. He ends up losing his job and starts working for a teen magazine as "Love Doctor Dave". Through this job he realizes he has a teenage daughter. The HHS LMTC does not own this book, but the La Crosse Public Library does.
