When you think of the month of February what do you think of? I think of Valentine’s Day and how much I hate the Hallmark Holiday. I think of how I survived another year being me…and how I can’t wait to be me for another year. I think of National History month, National Friendship month, National Theater Month, National Science month, and the birthdays of Jonathan Letham, Ross Thomas, Russell Hoban, and Ian Banks. Lots and lots of reading for the month of February. Unfortunately, all of this will have to be put on hold while I read other things. LibraryThing has me tied up with:
-
The Jerusalem Diet: Guided Imagery and the Personal Path to Weight Control by Judith Besserman and Emily Budick
-
Dancing to “Almendra”: A Novel by Mayra Montero
-
and a third book coming soon.
Here’s where I’ll try after I am done with those:
-
American Century – by Harord Evans
-
Defiant Hero – by Suzanne Brockmann
-
His Excellency – by Joseph Ellis
-
Bright Young Things – by Amanda Vail
I just found out that American Century is over 700 pages long and is a nemesis subject of mine: history. Ugh. So, I anticipate I won’t get to any of the others this February. Maybe next year!

I loved The American Century, still have a copy of that in my little library. Embrace your nemesis because it’s a great book.
It’s a huge, coffee table sized mammoth, but very beautiful (as you will soon, eventually, read).
