My favourite read from March was the new cookbook <i>The Hairy Dieters (5) Go Veggie</i> by Si King & Dave Myers.jessicabookwormhttps://thebookwormchronicles.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-41686839459126114482018-03-03T13:29:02.844-08:002018-03-03T13:29:02.844-08:00I am writing and posting the reviews as fast as I ...I am writing and posting the reviews as fast as I can!Judy Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632346091869688862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-69241969222713509082018-03-03T13:18:15.133-08:002018-03-03T13:18:15.133-08:00What a bundle!

But aplomb? Ha! Those last few days in the month I was freaking out because I was behind on my goal. Anyway it is a fun game I play with myself. I know that when summer comes and my yard needs me it may become impossible. Thanks for the admiration.

I guess it has sunken in for me that we are likely to have some kind of apocalypse, if not in our lifetimes, then eventually. <br />My favorite Stevie Nicks album is Bella Donna, hands down. So many favorites songs but Sara is for sure among them. My review of that one will be posted any day now. I have stories!Judy Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632346091869688862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-49108271013887902782018-03-01T17:26:23.125-08:002018-03-01T17:26:23.125-08:00Quite a wide array of reads!

I think it's the one where people are being kept in the cellar .... yikes. I look forward to the reviews of these. I heard a Stevie song the other day ... maybe it was After the Glitter Fades which took me back to her Bella Donna days. What is your favorite song & album of hers? Landslide I must say is all-time classic ... but there are others ... like her song Sara ... hmmthecuecardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870323589682197091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-51705618698583922222018-03-01T13:51:01.088-08:002018-03-01T13:51:01.088-08:00Thanks Lisa.

I read and reviewed a novel written by Mario Vargas Llosa titled In Praise of the Stepmother in October 2016. Mario Vargas Llosa is a good writer no doubt about it, but In Praise of the Stepmother was a very weird and creepy novel. Here's a link to my review of Mario Vargas Llosa's novel: https://captivatedreader.blogspot.com/search?q=Mario+Vargas+Llosa Captivated Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15789205839634527219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-52569537858847985162018-03-01T12:50:02.301-08:002018-03-01T12:50:02.301-08:00A good variety of books!
