The Long March Ahead

Do you ever feel like March is the longest month ever? Maybe it's because I'm a teacher that March takes a long time. We hav eno days off, no breaks, and there is always cold weather and snow here in upstate New York. March is the month between the long winter and the coming spring and I can never wait for it to be over. Right now reading books will be the thing getting me through the long March ahead.
My best friend bought me a Nook for my 30th birthday...a very generous gift for sure! But, I love it and I spend all my time reading books. I have always loved to read but the Nook has given me immediate access to books without having to go to the store and I love it! I have set my knitting down for a little while and am focusing on reading right now. I did knit a new hat ( my own pattern) and a scarf for a friend. I am also still weaving baskets on Saturday mornings. I will try to post some pics of those. Right now I want to display the books that I've read recently. Some of them are really good books.
 
I absolutely loved your Best Birth. I think that every pregnant woman should read it before giving birth!  Glass House was a great read. I'm not sure why but it reminded me of Running With Scissors. Mennonite was pretty good but at times I needed to push through to finish it.
 I really liked the House at Riverton. Taboo was pretty good but not unlike many of the other pregnancy books I've read. I loved Little earthquakes! Great book and moved along quickly. 



 Shit My Dad Says was a good book but grew repetitious after a while. I'm reading the witch book right now and I like it so far.
