Special Delivery


Title: Special Delivery
Author: Danielle Steel
My Area of Interest: I read several of her books, and thought I would do some audio.
Castaway - I at least made it thru the first side of the 1st tape, but not the second. I kept trying to get into it, but just couldn't. Maybe I'm just no longer in the mood for Danielle Steel, maybe its because most of her books are the same now for me.

Author: Agatha Christie
My Area of Interest: I've always liked Agatha Christie's audios, and I love watching the Hercule Poirot movies!
Finished 5/7/07 - Pretty good one. Another Periot mystery. This one I've actually seen on PBS as a movie.

The Horse Whisperer


Title: The Horse Whisperer
Author: Nicholas Evans
My Area of Interest: I first saw this book when I was in High School working for Dory Reese, I did some accounting work for her and she was a horse trainer, or whatever.. anyway I saw it was being made into a movie, and thought I would give it a go.
Castaway - Didn't even make it thru the first side of the first tape. I hated it! Why do I keep trying to read these books about countryish/cowboyish people?

My Area of Interest: I was in Hastings yesterday and while Jordan was in the cart reading, I looked over and saw some books by Madonna, I didn't even know she had any. So while Jordan was busy reading Nemo and Pooh books, I read this one.
Finished 5/6/07 - Pretty cute actually! I like how she wrote, it's done in a funky chic style, and the illustrations fit perfectly.

#42 - Wan2Tlk?: Ltl Bk of Txt Msgs


Title: Wan2Tlk?: Ltl Bk of Txt Msgs
Author: Gabrielle Mander
My Area of Interest: I love books wrote as txts, emails, letters, blogs, etc., and I thought from the title this would be one of those.
Finished 5/4/07 - It wasn't one of those books. Turns out that it is just a book with the meanings of some of the symbols like for a cat }:-X or ^,,^ & stuff like A$Lkr (Ass licker). Handy little book. I don't think I'll ever really use all the short hand stuff, but I'm gonna keep it to remember how to do the rose and cat and stuff.

My Area of Interest: I was doing a lot of audios at the time, and it looked pretty good to me.
Finished 5/4/07 - Wasn't all too fond of it. It's actually the first anthology type I've finished. Not sure why but the multi stories just don't appeal to me very much. The last story however, I liked, but I wasn't too into the others... the could be because I'm not a kill anaimals and acutally sleep in the dirt kinda girl. ;)
