#3

Three books in January...I might break a record in 2012!  Before I get into my book review I have to share that it is the last day in JANUARY ~ in CLEVELAND, OHIO ~ and it was 60 degrees.  With no rain.  Packing for run club this morning, amazed at what I didn't put in...a sweatshirt...a jacket...a hat...gloves...   Ran in capris and a short sleeved shirt ~ it was BEAUTIFUL ~ and we ran 5 miles.  More on that tomorrow.

Book #3 for 2012 was a winner before I even started it.  One of my students brought it in and said, "My grandma wanted you to read this book.  She really liked it and thinks you will too."
Isn't that so cool!  I really LOVED that this Grandma thought of her granddaughter's reading teacher and wanted to share a book!  {she is the lady who runs our book fairs...so she knows what kind of book nut I am}

Look Again by Lisa Scottoline sucked me right it.  It's got drama, family, and a little love interest too.  The conflict starts right away.  A mother gets one of those missing children cards in the mail and the picture catches her eye.  It looks just like her 3 year-old adopted son.  What should she do?  What would I do?  I thought I had the conclusion worked out...but no, there are many twist and turns ~ I really didn't know how it would turn out until the very end.  A couldn't put down page turner that says a lot about the importance of following the truth in life, no matter what it may bring.
fl: Ellen Gleeson was unlocking her front door when something in the mail caught her attention.  ll: And for that, Ellen didn't need a translation.
