I Won Again!

I can't believe it! I won another book from GoodReads.com! The book is Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin. It's not really a "First Read" because it has been out for a few years now. I guess it was for publicity or something. I've been wanting to read this book for a while now, though. I'm so excited!

Here is a description of the book from Amazon:

"Something Borrowed tells the story of Rachel, a young attorney living and working in Manhattan. Rachel has always been the consummate good girl---until her thirtieth birthday, when her best friend, Darcy, throws her a party. That night, after too many drinks, Rachel ends up in bed with Darcy's fiancé. Although she wakes up determined to put the one-night fling behind her, Rachel is horrified to discover that she has genuine feelings for the one guy she should run from. As the September wedding date nears, Rachel knows she has to make a choice. In doing so, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk all to win true happiness."

I can't wait to get the book! Apparently it takes a while, though, because I haven't received The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie yet. Oh well, it's worth the wait!

Well, I guess I missed Waiting on Wednesday...

I just now realized that today is Thursday. I totally missed Waiting on Wednesday. I was all ready to write it when I looked at the calendar and saw that it's Thursday. Apparently, my brain isn't working today. My sister-in-law and niece are visiting this week, so I won't have much time for reading or posting.

I was going to post about The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley for Waiting on Wednesday. I actually won this book from GoodReads.com. I'm really excited to get it! Here's a description of the book from Amazon:

"It's the beginning of a lazy summer in 1950 at the sleepy English village of Bishop's Lacey. Up at the great house of Buckshaw, aspiring chemist Flavia de Luce passes the time tinkering in the laboratory she's inherited from her deceased mother and an eccentric great uncle. When Flavia discovers a murdered stranger in the cucumber patch outside her bedroom window early one morning, she decides to leave aside her flasks and Bunsen burners to solve the crime herself, much to the chagrin of the local authorities. But who can blame her? What else does an eleven-year-old science prodigy have to do when left to her own devices? With her widowed father and two older sisters far too preoccupied with their own pursuits and passions—stamp collecting, adventure novels, and boys respectively—Flavia takes off on her trusty bicycle Gladys to catch a murderer."

I think it sounds like it will be cute. I was so surprised to find the email that said I won the book. I'm still kind of shocked. I will start reading it as soon as I get it, but it said it can take up to a few weeks. The book will be released on April 28, 2009.
