What's on your nightstand? November edition...

November 26, 2008
Wow, time sure flies. I can't believe it's time for this 5 Minutes for Books event again... Where'd the last four weeks go?





This month, I've slowed down on my reading. The list of read books include:
  • The Bourne Sanction by Eric Van Lustbader - I'm a fool for Jason Bourne. This story pits him against an assasin by the name of Arkadin, and makes Bourne a pawn in the machinations of two men.
  • Goodnight Nobody by Jennifer Weiner - This book about less-perfect-than-other-moms-in-suburban-Connecticut Kate, was entertaining and fun. The plot wasn't the greatest, and I didn't really care about the deceased Kitty (& couldn't figure out why Kate did), but the story was quick, the dialog funny, and I could actually "see" Kate in my head as I read this book.
  • The Guy Not Taken by Jennifer Weiner - This collection of short stories left me a little down. Not because of the writing, but because of the storylines.
  • The Queen's Bastard by C.E. Murphy - This is a re-read. I wasn't sure I liked Belinda Primrose in my first go at this book. Now I'm pretty sure this isn't one of my favs from Murphy. I'll still follow the series, if only to find out where Javier ends up, but I'll probably borrow from the library instead of getting it at the bookstore...

And the maybes (since I'm #1 on the holds queue at the library, I'm assuming I'll get to these in the next four weeks):

The latter two mostly because of Brenda's holiday giveaways. Now I'm curious. And she replies to emails! =) What can I say, I'm easy to please...
