  5. Being inspired by "What Should I Do with My Life" by Po Bronson that I picked up on the dollar carts outside the Strand bookstore in NYC (the best place ever!) Also a cookbook/gardening hybrid called "Jamie at Home" by Jamie Oliver. The tv series was so fun to watch and the book is simple food at its best - straight from the garden.

  8. I too love my Kindle! Amazing for travel, as well as for summer and winter power outages (all too frequent in my neck of the woods).

    I am currently reading Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion by Elizabeth Cline.

    I recently finished Richard Ford's Canada, Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl and Ernest Cline's Ready Player One.

  11. Currently, I'm reading through the original Nancy Drew mysteries, which seems so odd for a 32 year old, but I never read them as a child, so I'm catching up. ; ) I love them, though, and will be sad when I finish the last.
