Commencement by J. Courtney Sullivan


Yes, I have finally finished The Girl Who Played With Fire.
It was good but I need a break from Lisbeth and Mikael (which is good because the 3rd and final installment of the series is only available in hardcover, which means it weighs about 8lbs. I'll wait for the paperback, thank you very much.)
But besides the weight of the book - I realized that it's summer and I need something light and frothy to read.
So I headed over to the World's Biggest Bookstore yesterday only to discover that they have a sale on:
Buy 3 books and get the 4th one free.
Well that changed everything.
I had only set aside half an hour of my lunch break (since I only intended to buy ONE book) but I couldn't pass up the deal when there are so many I want to read.
So I bought four.
(and was 15 minutes late getting back from my break.)
Here's what I got:










I know, I know. They all look kind of the same.
But with the move and the house and everything that's going on, it's what the doctor's ordered for me.
Plus, I"m going on vacation in a couple of weeks and I hope to have some time to sit in my backyard with a cool drink and one of these babies in my hand.
Some downtime for my body and (even moreso) my brain.

I've started Commencement.
I"ll let you know if it was worth the cost and the late return to work.
