I found myself wandering the aisles of Barnes and Noble yesterday, and I had no impulse control. Look what I bought:
I have some great reading in front of me!

Oh yes, like you had NOTHING TO READ on your shelves ..
Both of those are on my wish list.
Yum! I have a mad urge to buy a new book because lately I opt for library or used almost exclusively. I’ve had my eye on The World Without Us or AGES, and I have a Borders coupon, so I might spring for that this weekend.
I loved That Old Cape Magic…and everything else Russo has written!
Happy reading!
Laura: *laughs* And you know, I hold you responsible for the Russo book…had you not loved it, I might have been able to resist.
Kathy: They were on my wishlist such a short time before I caved to the temptation.
Andi: Go spend!!! How’s that for enabling you?
JoAnn: I’ve only read one other Russo (so far) but loved it. I expect to love this one too.
Vasilly: Thanks!
You can’t really get any better than Richard Russo, in my opinion, and this one is no exception. I loved it and hope you will, too!
I hope u enjoy That Old Cape Magic as much as I did!
I have the oates book as well. can’t wait to read what you think.
That Old Cape Magic is good but very masculine. you’ll see when you read it.
Rebecca: The one other Russo I’ve read, I loved…I expect to love this one too!
Diane: I hope so too!
Serena: I hope to read it sooner rather than later!
Amy: I think Russo tends to write “masculine” books…at least the last one I read by him I would classify that way.
