just finished ...

Arrested Development Season 2 ... I know I have mentioned this before but I LOVE the library. I just go online, reserve the DVDs I want and voila - they email me when they are ready to pick up. I know, I know - nothing new and genius but new and genius to me! I never watched Arrested Development when it was on TV but heard several people say how funny it was and that they hope they go through with the Arrested Development movie ... trust me, I would be lining up to see that one! Hilarious!

Dream When You're Feeling Blue by Elizabeth Berg ... I recently listened to another one of Elizabeth's audiobooks and was hooked by her simple story telling about people's lives and how they intertwine into something more fabulous than just each individual's story. This audiobook did not disappoint. I just picked it based on the author but was delighted that it was about WW2 and shared the stories of those fighting on the front line and those left back home to wait through correspondence between each other. Each letter brings new hope and new heartache. I didn't want this one to end.

Broken by Daniel Clay ... I got this book from a co-worker who picked it up at Chapters in the discount section. I started reading it without really having any clue as to what it was about and a few pages in and I decided to read the back cover. This book is both fascinating and disturbing. It is a roller coaster ride of damage, heart break, evil and darkness but I just couldn't put it down. I needed to see who made it to the end of the story and what happened to each and every character. The only thing that surprised me and that I didn't like about this book was the fact that it didn't break up into chapters. Just one long story in novel form - different but once I got into it, I didn't notice much. WARNING ... Do not read this if you are easily disturbed!
