I did read a sequel to a book I liked awhile back. The first one is called The Friday Night Knitting Club. It is about a group of women who become friends through their knitting. It is an unusual book for me to like. The reason is a bit of a spoiler. My mom is a breast cancer survivor so any book that involves people getting the Big C is a turn off for me. So there, I gave a bit away, but the point is that I still liked the book.
My sister discovered that there is a sequel. Knit Two. I just finished it this weekend. I liked it even better! Maybe because there was no Big C, but I think it was really because the characters developed more.
I spent an hour at the library during Brittany's ballet class. I just can't seem to get excited about anything. I don't want super serious but that seems to be leaving me with fluff. Anyone read anything great lately?
I am reading The Host and really like it. I also loved The Secret Life of Bees. Anything by Sue Grafton or KAthy Reichs (suspense, mystery) is great. Harlan Coben is phenomenal! His books should all be made into movies.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your daughter. I adore the old fashioned Nancy Drew.:) Has she tried the computer games? They are such fun!! Lori
I didn't like the the first one because of the cancer thing but maybe I will check out the 2nd one. I liked the characters.
ReplyDeleteI just finished the first book and had no idea that it involved cancer. It was a big shock to me, especially as I carry the BRCA1 cancer gene and am dealing with it in a personal way.
ReplyDeleteI would like to read the second book though...
