One down, 49 to go!

Well, it's official, I have finished Jodi Picoult's book, Songs of the Humpback Whale. Does anyone know, was this book her first novel? I really should check out her website again, I know it was one of her earlier ones. Speaking of Jodi Picoult, I was perusing her website the other day and her new book which comes out sometime in 2010 sounds really good! It's called House Rules and it's about an autistic teenager. She has a few chapters posted on her website and what I read is great! It's just frustrating to have to wait for one of her books now that I am so close to finishing her entire collection. After finishing this latest book, I want to jump right in to her novel Handle with Care, but alas, the library books await me! Perhaps this afternoon while my munchkins nap I will delve into Take One by Karen Kingsbury. I can usually get through one of her books in one day, but like I mentioned before I found I couldn't get into this one since I had already read the sequel to it since it arrived at the library before this one did! Well techically, it didn't, the fact of the matter was that I waited too long to get my butt down to the library and when I finally did, to my dismay, Karen's book had been shipped back along with a couple of others, on to the next person on the waiting list. Sad but true. You snooze, you lose in this case! Well, I'm off to turn the coffee pot on as I will be welcoming in a couple of neighbors soon for our daily morning coffee. Another perk to providing childcare from my home. How many other occupations are there out there in today's world where one can do that almost every day?
