To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…
• What are you currently reading? Where We Belong by Emily Giffin. It's only my second Giffin, but I can see why she's crazy popular. She so clearly likes her characters and draws them so compassionately. Very good chick lit.
• What did you recently finish reading? Sybil Exposed by Debbie Nathan. Fascinating and really quite shocking. Sybil -- both the book and the made-for-TV movie starring Sally Field about the woman with 16 personalities -- was something of a fraud and worse, the real woman behind the story was used as a marketing tool.
• What do you think you’ll read next? So many possibilities! Perhaps Kinsey and Me, by Sue Grafton. Or Anne Frank's Family, a biography of the entire clan that gave us that extraordinary young diarist.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
If you enjoy Giffin, you ought to try Jill Mansell. She's BritChickLit and wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love Sue Grafton's book!
ReplyDeleteI have to read that Sybil book. I stole my Mom's copy of Sybil when I was probably too young to read it and absolutely became obsessed with that...was probably the sole reason I ended up with a degree in psychology. To find out the whole thing was a fraud's gonna be heartbreaking.
