As I mentioned earlier, I just could not get into the last book I started reading (The Book Thief by Markus Zusak). I tried again over the Holidays and it just wasn’t happening. My mind would wander after each sentence and I had to keep going back to re-read pages. I ultimately decided to throw in the towel.
While perusing the aisle’s of Target for some toddler tunes, I decided to find something a little lighter to read. “Chick lit”, some may call it.
I picked up “Something Borrowed” by Emily Giffen and read 200 pages in one day. I finished it the next evening. It was a very easy read. Something happened each chapter that made you keep turning the pages. It was a little trashy….the kind of trashy that reality shows are. I think that’s why I got sucked in. I didn’t have to think much and it was like watching drama unfold in a reality show.
I give it two thumbs up for those of you who have baby brain (or just can’t focus lately) and need a light read.
