Good morning.
The last few days I have listened to my husband cough… err… hack, and thought well at least I dont get colds as easy as he does. THEN this morning as I am typing away, having my coffee I catch myself clearing my throat, and yeah… a little *cough*.
GAH.
I started to listening to Great House this morning and as it plays on my kitchen cd player and the narrator is going on about a missing Daniel and a desk she kept his letters in I suddenly realized I had no real idea what this story was about. I had seen it around the last year or so… I liked the cover, I picked it up at the library…. but now I am in a story of what? Poetry, a desk, a missing man…. so I had to go on line and try to read something about the book and find out that the desk becomes almost a character… a center piece around which the story is set. Ok… now I am engaged…
Our narrator has written seven novels at that desk and when a mysterious daughter calls to claim it after two decades…. hmmmm… interesting.
Ok.. .I have to get ready for work, stop back in later I have a snarky review coming up which while the book was BAD BAD BAD… I had a lot of fun with the review.



Oh, I hope you’re not coming down with a cold! Take care of yourself.
Thanks Kathy… that would just annoy me… 😀
Oh, that’s not a good sign…a cough! Take some Zicam…or Airborne, but maybe it’s too late for that.
Get better!
The book sounds intriguing.
I think I am ok Laurel, I have a little sniffle but the day is gorgeous and I want to fight through it 😉
I read Great House – I hope that is the title, it was hard to get through, I thought I might understand it if I read it a second time, but once was enough…
Hmmm…. it is too early to tell for me Patty. I just started it 😉
Now that’s a different kind of book! Sounds strangely intriguing!
Hope you and Al feel better soon!
Thanks Vicki… yeah… we will see about this audio 😀
Hope you’re feeling better soon and I’m looking forward to the snarky review. From the worst books come the best reviews 😉
Hee hee! 😀
Hope you’re feeling better! And poor Al….coughing/hacking is never fun. 😦
As we say around here when someone is coming down with a cold, “Fight it off…GRRRRR!”
