Also thanks for letting me know that Donna Tartt reads for the audio of her book Little Friend. I didn't realize that -- I will look for it. thecuecardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870323589682197091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-14181761938205020872018-07-06T04:48:16.640-07:002018-07-06T04:48:16.640-07:00Congrats to Carly!

We h...Wow, that IS a lot of travel in a short time! We have also had a very hectic couple of months but not so much travel. In fact, I am in desperate need of a vacation!<br /><br />How wonderful that Carly is starting her adult life in SF - what an amazing place! I'm surprised she was able to find affordable rent there, though.<br /><br />The Leavers was great - it was one of the 2017 Booktopia selections so i got to meet Lisa Ko, too. I just noticed that my local bookstore chose it for their August book club book, so I am thinking of trying to attend. And I've never heard of The Little Friend! I thought I'd read all the Tartt novels. I loved The Goldfinch but was just so-so on The Secret History (too dark & totally unlikable characters).<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of your trip and then some relaxing time at home!<br /><br />Sue<br /><br />It's Monday! What Are You Reading? We are all focused on Big Books here, for my Big Book Summer Challenge! I'm still reading Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon (book 2 in the Outlander series), and it is still wonderful! My husband didn;t have much reading time last week but is still reading Cloud Atlas by David Mitchel, one of my all-time favorite novels. Our son just moved onto Book 10, Crossroads of Twilight, of the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan (he ALWAYS reads Big Books!)<br /><br />What are you and your family reading this week?<br /><br /><a href="https://bookbybook.blogspot.com/p/2018-big-book-summer-reading-challenge.html" rel="nofollow">2018 Big Book Summer Challenge</a>Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-44410897940831900182018-07-02T11:59:24.737-07:002018-07-02T11:59:24.737-07:00Boy you have been so busy over the past two months...Boy you have been so busy over the past two months. It sounds like a time of emotions and big life changes! My parents head to Ashland next week for a week; they go every summer. My daughter and I are going to San Francisco this Thursday for a few days; it will be a nice change as a heat wave hits southern California.Helen's Book Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01404788769349792460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-52830371131961288362018-07-02T08:11:39.138-07:002018-07-02T08:11:39.138-07:00That is a LOT of traveling and you are right, the ...That is a LOT of traveling and you are right, the pillows are what do me in when I don't sleep at home. It sounds like you made many wonderful memories though too. Glad your dad has improved! I find IKEA overwhelming also, and can't put together their furniture. Ashley is quite good at it. So was Patt. :)Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17197599882756386184noreply@blogger.com
