Ok...I'm getting a great head start to the reading part of my bucket list. With the snow that's been coming down, we had no reason to leave the house this weekend and I was able to finish my current book.
Here is what I've read so far in 2011:
I grabbed this one off the shelf at the Public Library. I don't know why the book has the rating that it does. I didn't like it. I would give it a 2/5. It started out ok. It had a quirky idea and had the potential to go somewhere. Somewhere part way through though it seemed to lose itself and become more disjointed. Then the end came - and I hated it. It made me wish I hadn't started the book in the first place.
Whenever I see my Aunt from out of province, she gives me a bag of books for my Mom and I to read before sending them to Goodwill. This book was one of them. It was a quick, light beachy kind of read. I'd rate it a 3/5.
This is the one that I finished this weekend. I had actually seen the movie one night during random channel surfing. It was the Hallmark movie of the week which is one of my guilty pleasures. When I see a movie based on a book, I get the urge to read the book too. I liked this book. It is a slow moving, simple book that takes the reader back into WW2 times. I give this one a 3.5 or 4 / 5.
