Happy Birthday, dear Sharon!
Wishing you FUN, HAPPINESS, a bit of
EXCITEMENT, and some really good
That's the book for the library club in September. I finished it and am so glad it's O-V-E-R !!!!!! I love her writing and the way she builds each character into a living, breathing person. I just couldn't take one more minute of the sadness! My God! So much heartbreak, illness, death, disappointment....it was just too much at once, for me. I'm going to look back at the discussions on the Nest, as I see it was one that you've read already. I shared some of it with my husband and he just shook his head. He knows that I internalize everything.&n
I have been working with a wonderful screenplay writer, Jill, and we've put together an film adaptation of Megan's Way which really highlights Megan's relationship with Olivia, her teenage daughter, and grows the part of Olivia--you'll really see her shine! We've changed the title to Pieces of Me, which I feel suits Olivia's story a bit more appropriately.
You start dating this guy. It is so much fun to be with him. He makes you laugh and everything just works perfect. Some little fights happen, as we all have them. But you do not pay attention to the motives of these fights. Well, he´s a bit jealous, what´s the big deal?
So you get married. In less than a year you get married to this guy and your home is your kingdom. It makes you feel great to get home from work. It is so cosy.
Tonight was our 'Easy Readers' book club meeting. We read, "Chamomile Mourning" and discussed it. The book was okay. I knew who the killer was by page 191. The best parts of the story were the descriptions of the different teas and pastries served at the Indigo Tea House. It was quite tempting gastronomically!
Watching TV the other day I saw a program about "Surrendered Housewives" and the book L.Doyle had written. I was amazed to hear she has so many followers, she gives seminars and has sold I don´t know how many books. I also know this is no new news. It was a shocking experience to hear this (old) news. That is definitively not the life I would freely and willingly choose for myself.
