I recently watched the movie version of The Road, and I thought it was really good.  I've heard great things about the book as well, so I thought I'd give it a try.

Years ago when I worked at the library I came across The Foxfire Books.  I'd never seen them before, and I found them so interesting.  I put them on my wish list to buy, but just never got around to it.  This year when I was racking my brain for what to get my Dad for Father's Day these books came to mind again.  He's into history, antiques, gardening, and pretty much anything old fashioned.  We're alike in that way, so that's how I know he'll love this book.

A Trip To The Bookstore

We went to Barnes & Noble this afternoon to do a little book shopping.  My daughter finished the first book in the Harry Potter series today.  She read the last page while we were parking, so she bought book number two.  She's really getting in to this series...guess I'll be reading it soon!  She also got a Harry Potter bookmark.

I was looking through a pile of books on a Buy 2 and get the 3rd free table, when I found a book that is on my list of mysteries to read, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley  This book was recommended by picky from The Europa Challenge Blog, and I'm excited to read it.
