Playing catch up once again….
5 more books I have read:
25.
I know I have written about this author here before,
actually, just last week :)
I do really like her writing.
It reminds a little bit of the books
I read when I was younger…
I loved Jackie Collins…and books
that were glossy and glittery
and maybe a tiny bit smutty…heh.
Anyway. These last two books by
Taylor Jenkins Reid
remind me slightly of that time
in my life…but
without the smuttiness
:)
Rich people, famous people,
rock stars, celebrities
and secrets behind the screens…

Not really a subject I am good with reading about…
anything that has to do with children
really, really hurts my heart…it always has.
The note I had written myself about this book was:
”I did not expect to love this so much
but the writing was very beautiful and tragic and
sweetly sad like a fairy tale.”

Another quick read that was a bit of a thriller,
a bit creepy (which is not usually my thing) and also involved a kid…
but it was well worth the read.

and welcome to the
self help portion of my reading list….
:)
I actually really liked this book.
I appreciated his no-nonsense way of
looking at things…I liked that he said the eff word a lot.
I felt like a lot of this was not new to me,
but did reaffirm some thoughts I had…
but I did also have some epiphanies while reading this.
The truth is I am pretty happy on my own
and I knew this going into the book…
I do not require a relationship to be happy.
I am not opposed to one but
I am also unwilling to settle for anything less
than sparks and butterflies. :)
“Asking myself where I am going
before I ask
who is going with me.”

This.
This book. This was one of my most favorite books
this year. And yes, it’s a bit of a self-help-y kinda thing
but it’s the kinda self help-y thing I like…
Also, it has the eff word in the title.
Which I always like.
I made sooooo many notes while reading this.
And when I finished it, I wanted to start it over again.
It is not a “give away for trade book”
it’s one I know I will re-read…
and I just like seeing it on my shelf.
* also the author is adorable
and my bestest friend now cause she left
a comment on Instagram…heehee
