I have no new book review for you this week. I'm slogging through The Lace Reader. I know what you're thinking. It's a book I had to have so I could fit in to a new book club. I just can't get into it however. I'm already at page 110 and I still haven't been hooked. I'll let you know if that changes.
The book I had been reading before The Lace Reader took over, called The Cave is also a slog. I love the story but being that it's translated from Portuguese makes reading it a bit slower. Now I'm stuck between two difficult stories. I'm committed to reading all the books on my shelf. Passing it along before I finish is not an option in this project. I must finish what I start.
A part of following the 12 steps on my road to overcome my book addiction, is that I have to take the good with the bad, the easy with the hard. But I won't give up. At night when I read in bed I just get to turn the light out a little sooner, Ginger doesn't have to wait so long for her evening biscuits and I get in a few more winks.
Maybe that's another lesson learned. I need more sleep. Or is it be careful what you wish for when in the bookstore.
