Birthday Gals!
A friend of mine and I have birthdays which are just a few days apart. This year we decided to have lunch and go to... (you will be shocked)... the book store! We had dinner at Texican Cafe and then wandered around Barnes and Noble while she watched me spaz out, grabbing books and telling her to read this one and that one and not bother with that one. (Tom hates to go with me, I touch everything). I came away with BOOKS! Oh and we had cheesecake at the Starbucks there. Yum!

I got:
1. The Girl Who Stopped Swimming - Okay, I am 99.9% sure this book was due out on March 4. But it was there and it's for sale on Amazon. I feel gypped because I had specific plans to get this book the day it came out and it's already out! *laugh* It will be read VERY soon. I love this author!
2. Beautiful Boy - I know, I read depressing stuff sometimes. This is a neat memior though. Instead of it being about the person... it's written by the father watching his son go through drug addiction back.
3. Eat Pray Love - I KEEP LOSING THIS BOOK. It freaks me out. The first one I had to return to who I borrowed it from because I didn't read it. The next one has disappeared. It's no where to be found. If this one disappears too, I'm going to assume that someone doesn't want me to read it.
4. The Red Tent - My friend (Lana) says she loved it and has mentioned it a few times. So Imma give it a shot. Not my usual thing... but there ya go. She bought this one for me :)
I bought her The Time Traveler's Wife (No, she hadn't read it! Freak!)
Yay! I gotta start on the Jackson book seeing as everyone got a day or two jump on me *pouts*
Happy Birthday, Lana!

I liked the Red Tent, but liked India Edghill's books better. Check 'em out.
And the Tour Manager and I always seem to wind up at Half Price Books when we go out. It's either that or a hockey game!
Candy,
I wanted to put in a plug for The Red Tent!! That was an AWESOME book!! I couldn't put it down. I remember reading when I was pg with Mason and it was wonderful just to be able to lay around and read it. It was great and I would like to read it again at some point.
Let me know what you think!!!
Happy Belated Birthday my friend!!!! Hope it was a good one!
