As I prepare for my job transfer, my days feel incredibly busy and then my adrenaline levels drop the minute I walk in the door at night. This leads to me sitting on the couch watching copious amounts of The Big Bang Theory and The New Adventures of the Old Christine. God Bless the DVR.
I think part of the problem with coming home is the sheer boredom of the tasks that you face upon
your arrival. Switch the laundry, vacuum the dog hair, empty the dishwasher. It makes me yawn just to type it, much less do it.
But tonight's mail brought one of my favorite things. The padded envelope that can only mean one thing. I"m about to have a new book in my hands.
Tonight was an extra special night because there were TWO books in my padded envelope, and they are by two of my favorite authors!!!
Don't get me wrong, I love my egalleys on my Kindle, but to get a real paper book feels like a special treat at the end of a long day.
I'm currently finishing The Stolen Child by Laura Elliott, and it's been a good read. Gives me the creeps to think about a baby being stolen right out of the maternity ward, but I know it happens.
What are you reading?
