Allison and I have formed a book club outside of our book club, picking books we would love to read but knowing we probably won't get to them. We eached picked 6 books and pulled each title out from a cup. Each book was for one month out of the year.
Well one of my pickes was Flatland by Edwin A Abbott. It is literally 82 pages. It was, like, the March pick. Of course we are now in August. Still have not finished it.
So Cara, her almightly self, I guess got tired of us complaining about how was can't seem to finish it. Went out and bought. Finished it in two days. Only difference is her copy was a 147 pages. So now she thinks she can gloat and says she really enjoyed it. The guy loved his big words.
I am not saying it is a bad book. It is actually really interesting. Its not mind-consuming and one of those books you should read out loud. Just not while taking your morning walk. Too much breath.
Allison and I will finish this book and then finally move on to the next pick. Bitter is the New Black by Lancaster!
Wish us luck
