Happy Wednesday! Today I have a review of When Breath Becomes Air, a book I had the pleasure of buddy reading with my dear friend, Beth, at Bibliobeth, which she read as part of her Nonfiction November challenge. Check out her NN posts for lots of interesting fun!

My Thoughts:

When Breath Becomes Air has been on my shelf since I first bought it from Book of the Month over two years ago. I was waiting for the right time, and that never seemed to come. Timing is important for a read like this, and we all have our connections to books or topics that we feel might contribute to poor timing…If Beth hadn’t had this on her reading list for November and offered a buddy read, I don’t know if I ever would have picked it up. Even though I desperately wanted to read it, I was scared.

Happy Tuesday!  Today I have a review of In Pieces, Sally Field’s memoir, available now from Grand Central. Friends, when I was invited to read this book by the publisher, I could not believe my eyes. The day before I saw Sally Field on The View promoting her book, and I was one step away from buying a copy because I’ve always been a fan of hers.

My Thoughts:

Sally Field…My first introduction being either Steel Magnolias or Forrest Gump? I had heard of Gidget, the happy-go-lucky, girl-next-door, cute, charming, all smiles. 

Sally Field has a story to tell. It took her seven years to write it and a lifetime to live and process it. She could have kept this all to herself; we certainly never would have known. Her family hardly knew.

Some have asked me if In…

I was tagged by Bibi @ Bibi’s Book Blog (like 4 months ago, whoops! better late than never!) and you guys should totally check out her blog and give her a follow!

1 – How many books is too many in a series?

Ummm it depends on how obsessed with the series I am. I think anything more than 10 is pretty daunting for starting a new series but doesn’t mean I won’t do it.

2 – How do you feel about cliffhangers?

Well if it’s a series I kind of expect it. I can deal with cliffhangers better when I’m not waiting for the next book to come out in a year and can binge an already released series. Cliffhangers in a stand alone book are cruel and should not exist.

3 – Hardback or Paperback?

Probably hardback cause it’ll less easily damaged but I’m not that picky really.
