Bet Me
I stayed up until 2 a.m. reading Jennifer Crusie’s new book, “Bet Me.” I would have stayed up later, but my Prince Charming got up and asked why in the world was I still up at 2 a.m.? So I went to bed.
I woke up at 7 a.m. and although I really truly considered going back to bed after Prince Charming went to work, I picked up the book. I finished it by 10 a.m., just in time for the kids to wake up.
Excellent book. I just really, really like her books. I enjoy them as a reader, just to read. But I still get surprised by the depth of her talent as a writer. Like when she is describing her character’s mother who was nagging Min yet again….
“Min crossed the thick gold carpet and detoured around the dark-haired bundle of exasperation that had given birth to her.”
What a great description.


Love it! Beautiful new digs. You know, all the cool kids play with TypePad.
Except…can you figure out how to post a picture in your blog? Not it the photo album…
Love the new digs! But I have some questions for the tour guide (there is going to be a tour, isn’t there?) A:When did you decide to become “the mommy” again? I thought life was just going to happen. B:I can’t believe you stayed up late and didn’t play with me online. C:When will your links go up, and will I have to duke it out with AGK for top spot?
Linda, Your new home is lovely!
What made you decide to move? and am i going to be the only one not on typepad?
Of course you have to duke it out with me, SDH!
Linda…why would you move away from your own site? Weirdo. Still, it looks nice – but don’t you have to pay for this one???
