Finished The Other Boleyn Girl. I wanted to see how it ended, well I knew Anne looses her head but I wanted to see how the author chose to present it. I really liked it and would recommend it to anyone. It has a little something for everyone. Historical fiction, romance, scandal. Everything you need to have a real page turner. And with 735 pages there is plenty of turning to do.
But even though I'm happy I finished it I'm sad too. This was my last book that I have been planning on reading so now I don't have anything to read. If anyone out there has a recommendation I would love to hear it.
thanks so much

A post
I just realized how long it had been since I have made a real post that doesn't ahve to do with my polls! That is really scary so I'm gonna make a really real post.
So right now I am reading The Other Boleyn Girl By Philppa Gragory for the kinda second time. The first time I read it I got it as a library book and had to return it before I was done so this will technically be the first time I finish it, but whatever. This is the book that really started me on the Tudor era. I'm a historical fiction nut so this was right up my alley. After I read this one I read tons of other books about King Henry and his six wives and I love it! The best part for me is being able to get all the different perspectives. For example reading about Jane Parker in The Other Boleyn Girl and despising her and then reading about her in The Boleyn Inheritance (also by Gregory) and totally loving her. How else can you really understand history unless you get both sides of the story?
For those of you who have had no idea what I have been dithering on about here now would be an excellent time to use the fabulous world wide web to do a little research. I am off to munch on delicious pepperoni pizza!
Au revoir (if you don't know this either maybe you need to spend a little less time on the computer and a little more time reading)

Harry Potter kicking some butt
I don't want to choose a winner to early but Harry Potter is dominating. I guess I don't exactly have an audience that swoons at the word Twilight. Oh well if Harry Potter wins I won't be too upset

Speady Quick
That was fast! I left the room for like 5 minutes and there is already a vote on the new poll. I have no ides how I would vote on this one becasue I am a devoted fan to all three.
opions
The readrs have spoken and it looks like they would prefer to be fearless and tasteless. Both of which I disagree with, but that's what is so great about opions.

Wii Games
Okay so i'm here at the library and I'm super bored so I thought I would come blog. I don't really have much to blog about I just like to check my polls and see if people have been voting. wait I have something semi interesting to write about. So this weekend I got two new games for my Wii. I got Wario Land Shake It! which is basiclly a old school platform game that has been souped up for the Wii. But it's still tons of fun because my sister and I are super bad at it. The other game I got is called Rayman Raving Rabbits 2 (i think). This one is super fun! The whole rabbit series is awesome. THe game is basicly a ton of mini games that made me laugh out loud. Okay that is about all I want to blog about.
Peace
Molly
