The newest books I've discovered this week and hope to read someday below. Also, I visited a nice new boy up in Albany this past weekend and came home with a pile of books to read. He had the books in a gigantic bag under his bed, which isn't a very nice place for books, but. I think he was trying to impress me with his collection. Or something. So I should have a nice new In the Pile segment for the round up this week.

We read Are You There Vodka, It's Me Vodka for book club. It was disgracefully hillarious. One of those books that you can't help laughing at, but you blush at the same time. The first two chapters are not great, she doesn't do a very good job of portraying herself as a child, but the rest is pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteThe reviews I read seemed like it'd be a good book for laughing. I need that, sometimes!
