After seeing that first sentence, I may have to give that book a try, though. Another book I'd recommend is "The Role of a Lifetime." Let's see, that was written by ... ooh, what's her name? A really nice gal. Oh yeah, Jennifer ... Jennifer Something. Shirk, isn't it? Yes, that's it! Lovely book.

Sounds fascinating and fun!<br /><br />I was on vacation snowboarding in Vermont last week and I bought six new books as my souvenirs, LoL. It makes sense to me since whenever I read them or see them on my bookshelf I'll think of my vacation! (Plus two are by Vermont authors. Totally legitimate souvenirs I think!) So once I get through them I should have some good book recs. :)Laura S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13934230198562773803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395293021442031324.post-43524653564367118832012-03-12T14:03:06.719-05:002012-03-12T14:03:06.719-05:00I never heard of Switched but it sounds great!

That Lunch Lady will be perfect for Cat, and I wonder if hubs would like the running book. He's one of those who'll take off out the front door and 12 miles later he's back. I often compare him to a dog off it's leash. But he hates "runner talk." He thinks it's so pretentious and annoying... is it like that? Otherwise, he loves NF~ :o) <3LTMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05239077455322030275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395293021442031324.post-73954480695786171342012-03-12T11:40:35.151-05:002012-03-12T11:40:35.151-05:00Lunch Lady--excellent & Born to Run sounds rig...Lunch Lady--excellent & Born to Run sounds right up my alley!<br />~ WendyWendy Paine Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136235074351188350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395293021442031324.post-12688204455889058812012-03-12T10:37:16.458-05:002012-03-12T10:37:16.458-05:00And...my must read list grows longer!!
