It Feels Like Homework

I’m reading The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt.
A recommendation from Carol over at Tall Tales fromKansas
I take her recommendations seriously. She hasn’t steered me wrong yet.

Unfortunately I didn’t realize how long it was when I downloaded it onto Tablet so I didn’t pace myself. (I only borrow books from the library; I’m too cheap to buy them.)

I got an email saying I have to return it by tomorrow and since there’s a wait list I can’t renew unless I go to the end of the line.
I have 188 pages to go!
And Tablet just beeped at me telling me his battery is low!


I haven’t felt this pressured since I was in school!

  2. I can relate! The last two "really" good books I read, I had to finish them by locating used paperbacks.
