Remember this book? The one I said I wouldn't get until August 7th?
Finished it five minutes ago.
(Keith found it for me at Wal-Mart yesterday for nearly half the price. How could I resist?)
I thought it was really good, despite the reviews its apparently getting.
And the kitchen is done. I'm not going to show you pictures because all I did was clean out the cupboards, throw a pine IKEA table in the corner and a few decorations on the walls (big woop). Yesterday we made dinner together - lasanga and caesar salad. So nice to finally be able to eat and cook properly!
Now we're off for our weekly dinner at the In-laws. Apparently we're having ribs and its rumoured Keiths mom even baked a cake. Aww, I think we're missed.
Wayhay! You have been a busy reading beaver!
ReplyDeleteCan you cancel your Amazon order or are you gonna end up with two copies of the same book?
Of course I cancelled it. :P
ReplyDeleteand yes, this past week has been a reading dream (and I still have a book and a half to go!). I miss reading like that, I used to do it all the time. I really should get myself a library card, huh?
I haven't found a copy yet. :P All the stores are sold out.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's good! :)
Hachette Book Group estimates that they sold 1.3 million copies of Stephenie Meyer's BREAKING DAWN on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteThe company added a 500,000-copy reprint prior to publication, for 3.7 million copies in print.
Borders announced that its US stores and web site sold over 250,000 copies on opening day--"nearly 10 times what the retailer's first-day sales were for Eclipse, the third book in the series."
I finished around the same time you did. The book was great, but I don't think its my favorite in the series. And then there was that surprise factor, lots of "What the HECK?" moments for me.
ReplyDeleteI can see where the mixed reviews came from though...
I bought mine tonight. Now I just have to find the time to read it. :)
ReplyDeleteoh hurry up and read it so we/I can discuss it! lol :D
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
