Not My Fault!!

I KNOW I've been taking a little longer to answer comments lately and I am SO Sorry! BUT!! I DO have someone to BLAME!!Hahaaaa...DELORES at Moving Forward with Alzheimers is TOTALLY to blame!!Lololol...Well, she IS! She left a comment the other day saying "how it was a nice day for reading a book called, The Help...Well, I went to the bookstore that very night to meet a friend and the first thing I saw, when I walked into the store, was The Help! I bought it...didn't get to it for several days and then picked it up 2 nights ago...Guys!!! I am Loving it! Here's a link to the book if you think you may be interested in reading it. I think it's the author's first book and it's Already going to be made into a movie! Same line as Driving Miss Daisy. Civil rights era. Thanks Delores! It is the first good book I've read in a Long time! And I can't Believe all the things you can do with Crisco!!!Hahahaa..... Can't wait to finish it.
Hope you all are having a great Wednesday! It's getting hotter here by the minute so I May be forced to....do some reading...Hahaaa...Indoors!

No hope when a good book gets its hooks into you. You just have to let everything else slide and finish it! Such fun.

Ann said...

I haven't read a book in ages. Every time I try to sit down and read I end up falling asleep...lol Glad you are enjoying though

Jeanette said...

That was a really good book..I hear it's going to be a movie, too!

Jeanne said...

I've been hearing all kinds of good stuff about that book. Guess I'll have to add it to my list too.

Dolores said...

Yea, soooooo glad you're enjoying the book! I had trouble putting it down, and I normally don't like novels. I seldom read a book twice, but I've already started reading this one again.

Humid and hot here too....in fact, we're getting ready to get in the pool to cool off.

Hugs,

Well, first I had to visit Delores. My mil passed from Alzheimers, and her mother before her. It's past time to find a cure for this cruel disease!

Now on to the book, it sounds wonderful! Such great success for a first novel. I'll have to read it one of these days!

Enjoy your reading... no guilt allowed!

I better write it down

The Urban Cowboy said...

In the middle of another right now, but I'll check it out. I download my books to my reader, that way I can jump from book to book no matter where I'm at. Have a great one Donna!

I am currently reading The Same Kind Of Different As Me, and though it is not my usual choice in books, I can't put it down. I love books like that.

Enjoy yours!

One of the reasons I love my Kindle is I can always have my books with me!! I carry that little thing around with me all the time and am currently reading a terrific true crime book! Alzheimer's is an awful disease. My mother had it. It is dreadful...for the family as well as the person suffering from it. I sure wish they would find a cure for it.

It's nice to find a good story that you weren't looking for. Serendipity. I think I've found one too: "The Forgotten Garden."

Latane Barton said...

Hello,
So glad you found me through Dolores's blog. Loving what I am seeing on your blogs.

About 'The Help'. My daughter recommended it to me and I loved it.

Sounds like a book I won't be able to sit down, everyone here has enjoyed it.Thanks for the heads up.

SquirrelQueen said...

I checked out the link to the book and it does sound good, thanks for the recommendation. I've got some others to read first but will add this one to my list. My next read is "Hothouse Flower".

Having my book made into a film is my dream come true; and I might even play the lead role!!

Donna said...

I appreciate the recommendation! I'll download a sample on to my Kindle and check it out! Right now, I am reading Saving CeeCee Honeycutt and it is wonderful. I was bawling like a baby through one part of it! Only about half-way through so far.
