Oki, so I managed to squeeze some reading into my schedule yesterday. I like the Bingley sisters,

You would, They're so two-faced,
And yes, I got the Kiera movie. It should be here on Thursday,
Who is actually reading this book?

It must be our exceedingly cultured upbringing.

Am I the only one who read this damn book? Should we just move on to a different one?

Kevin and Aaron? Should we start a new book? You really don't have to read it if you aren't getting into it.

I told you guys, "Stardust". Quicker read and enjoyable! I'm about halfway done which would be a good head start for me to keep up with you guys - haha!! I've been so insanely busy to read.
As for boring books, tonight at rehearsal I saw my friend Andrea reading "Whithering Heights". It looked like she was halfway finished. I picked it up and said, "This looks boring" She then said to me, "It is, but it's a classic so i'm trying to read it." OMG - YUCK!! Then my friend Kevin said, "Yea - even the cover looks boring!"

LOL, they certainly did not. I loved it, I finished watching the TV series today and I have to say that it totally deserved all the praise that it received. The actors were amazing at bringing the characters to life. They came across just right. As for Wuthering Heights, you need look no further than Aaron's signature to discover that it is layered with subtext.

Yes, I'm sure that's just one of the reasons it's been so popular. For more than a century.

Oh whew. I thought you were operating under the assumption that it hadn't been finished by all because it might be "boring."

So, I finished this the other day!
I remember being kind of surprised by the direction the book took at first. I thought it would be all about Jane, but then luckily it turned to Elizabeth,
And I really hated most of the Bennets, besides Elizabeth and Jane. Ugh.
