I don't know how fun this will be. It starts with a woman divorcing her husband as brutally as she can.

Couldn't help picking this up last night, thanks to the thread in Other I am thoroughly fascinated by this phenomenon.

I FINISHED A BOOK



First one finished since the last Harry Potter came out, and I started quite a few in that period.

Which brings me back to if I like a book, I'll read it. It just takes a lot for me to like a book. 368 sweet pages. I read only when I had complete silence because I loved the book so much, I wanted to savor each word all by myself, like if I were eating a chocolate cake and didn't want to share.

The book is part two, first one being The Chosen (another awesome book).

Next up:

Halfway through Bleachers by John Grisham, which is a very short book that I've had kicking around for a while. Also halfway through The Fifth Horseman by James Patterson, but I accidentally left it in Ottawa when I visited my sister.

I've read a few Elmore Leonard books in the last few weeks, like Pagan Babies and Glitz. Really liked Pagan Babies, but Glitz didn't do it for me.

Read this one a couple years ago. Really enjoyed the Shiloh and Okinawa sections. Delium seemed to produce the same conclusions that all studies of the period have produced.
