if you like blogs then you probably use a reader to keep track of it all for you.
if you too use google reader, i'm posting this because it has literally changed my life!
you may already know about the NEXT BUTTON...but if you don't, you soon will! it allows you to scroll through your blogs (the real, live, actual page!) instead of reading the color-less, boring reader updates. check it out - here is how i got it set up:

NEXT BUTTON

can't get into it

i know that many of you have read the twilight series books by stephenie meyer. they're easy to read and even a bit entertaining but i can't really call myself a fan. i finished "breaking dawn" a week or so ago, and with the three books prior, felt like it had been wasted time. by contrast, i find the harry potter books (comparable target age group, and the authors are often compared to each other) to be much more entertaining. i wonder what that says about my personality?!

anyway, so i've picked up stephenie meyer's "the host" to read this week and i just cannot seem to get into it! it seems to be dragging on page after page. in fact, i'm not sure how many pages i've actually read since i get through about two paragraphs and i'm asleep...zzzzzzz

should i keep reading on? or put it down for something more....significant?

ps. any book recommendations are more than welcome with your comments. i know i can count on you...monique, erin, etc...

ps2. yes, i have read "secret life of bees" - loved it. and you miller girls are a crack up - i did take julie's advice, bought "follow the river" and loved it. i already have "i mona lisa" - totally forgot i had it and might give that a try next.
