On non-stop as I study. I love her, the song, her acting. Everything. I especially love the mother-daughter interactions, so endearing. Oh yeah, and the man is beautiful.  BEAUTIFUL!

If only this could happen to me!

Book recommendations?

•December 4, 2007 • 15 Comments

What is the best book you have read? I am looking for something engaging, tranformative, and soothing.

I ask because in roughly 4 weeks, I will be in a tropical country on a beach. With nothing but a book and a pina colada for ten days. My goal is to catch up on all the reading I missed out on during law school. A book a day for ten days, a beach, a county full of good portions of beef and beautiful people, and of course good company. Yup, sounds like paradise.

Now give me your recommendations!

Pls :)

  • Sporadic hot chocolate and lunch with a friend (thank you!)
  • A thoughtful email from one of my favorite writers :)
