First book just arrived!

There is nothing I like more that walking into my favorite book store! I could spend endless hours reading the book jackets and smelling the scent of fresh unread pages. Unfortunately time does not permit me to do that very often so I resort to buying books online.I think in order to save some money (you know, in these hard economic times) I will be renting most of the books from my local library. It should have the same satisfying “book store” feeling. 

There are currently 68 books that have been selected for the Oprah Book Club. (you can find the full list here) The first book selected back in 1996 was “The Deep End of the Ocean”, by JacQuelyn Mitchard, which arrived at my front door this morning! I am so anxious to begin reading but I must first finish the book I am currently reading. Many people are able to read multiple books at a time. Not me. I have to devote my whole attention to a single story. Happy reading!
