Reading Marathon
I've been on a book-reading marathon, which started with When He Was Wicked. What I learned is that I shouldn't start a Julia Quinn novel in the evening. I ended up staying up to the wee hours of the morning. I loved it and rate it 5 out of 5. That sent me to the bookstore on Friday. I bought To Sir Phillip, With Love, which I read yesterday. I enjoyed that one very much also: 4 out of 5. I'm fond of stories that include exchanges of letters, so I loved the way this one started. I was incredibly moved by the scene where Phillip tells Eloise about his first marriage. I can tell I'm going to look for more of her books on my next bookstore trip.
On Friday, I read Justine Davis's In His Sights. I've enjoyed a number of her books in the past; in fact, three of her books are on my top 100 list. This one was a 3 out of 5. Rand is investigating a series of thefts at Redstone, Inc., and Kate is a suspect. Of course, they fall in love. The story wasn't bad, but it wasn't particularly memorable, either.
Here are my latest scrapbook pages:

Now I think I'll finish my list of my 100 favorite romances. I keep talking about it--now it's time to finish it.
