Last night I started reading "Summer of Amazing Luck" by Myriam Toews, and so far it's great! I really like her writing style, I think I'm gonna need to check her other novels out at the library.

I decided I just couldn't wait any longer to read Breaking Dawn, so I put Love in the Time of Cholera aside for a little while.

I started The Kitchen god's Wife by Amy Tan. I like the Joy Luck Club so I figured I'd give another one of her books a try

I am still in the middle of Emma, The Well of Lost Plots, and Breaking Dawn w/ a focus on Breaking Dawn. I will be impressed if I finish any of them within the next few months but I am trying to be better about taking a 1/2 hour for myself during the day. I think today's will be spent reading.
