| I highly recommend One Good Dog by Susan Wilson. I had cafe time at Barnes & Noble this week and picked up OGD and I could not put it down (that was on Wednesday and I have finished the book already). Have a delightful time!

I just read a 4 book series called the Uglies by Scott Westerfield and loved it--a suggestion from another YTer. It was kind of like Back to the Future meets 1984 meets Hunger Games all in one. I liked it so much that I picked up his Midnighters Series and am working on it now. | |

| Just finished "The Story of Edgar Sawtelle". I read tons of books and this was definitely one of the top ten books I've ever read. If you like dogs, you'll like it. It's also very well written.

Oh I love talking about books...second only to yorkies LOL I had a fabulous time at the bookstore, I ended up with another Keyes and the first book to the Uglies so well see how it goes. Although I do like the idea of a series that is finished LOL too many unfinished stories rattling around in my head...

| I read 'A woman of substance' recently. It was very good! Total fiction though in case you want to read something more substantial. It was good though, I enjoyed the story and the characters.
