I hope to tease something new next week, but I'll likely review this one with quotes when I'm finished it. That said... I may tease this one next week if I haven't started reading something else yet.<br /><br />Susan - Thanks! I'll have a look.<br /><br />Catherine - I haven't read a lot like this either. I got the idea for this one from <i>Eat, Pray, Love</i>, and I think I'll probably add more like this to the list once I'm done. Something to intersperse with other things, I think. I don't want to overdo it.<br /><br />Phyl - As you say! I was resisting reading this, thinking that I needed something light and fluffy, but then it occurred to me that I might need exactly this book and I think it was a good choice to start it now.<br /><br />Lisa - I actually had to cheat and be a little less random with this one. The book is full of sentences that make absolutely no sense on their own, so I tried to find something that was both short and a fully realized thought.<br /><br />celi.a - I'd say try the whole book for the full effect ;) but it's definitely not one for everyone, or every mood.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10330550798080469047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907747392138991807.post-45263979471363376552009-08-19T01:34:53.409-04:002009-08-19T01:34:53.409-04:00Mmm...I may have to muse on this a while to get th...Mmm...I may have to muse on this a while to get the full effect.
