Posted by on Jun 23 2008 | Books

But before I did all that I decided to just read a chapter of this:

My plans went out of the window. I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t even stop to make a cup of tea. Whole book read, I got to bed at 1am.

To make it even worse, I stopped off at a bookshop on my way home tonight (showing great restraint by not ditching work today to do so), and bought this:

Tonight I’m wiser though: I’m putting the kettle on before I read even one tiny little word.

  5. Read the first one. Threw the second one across the room. Will never touch another book that woman writes.

  6. books can be SO addicting. for example, i am reading a whole slew of books set in ireland right now to prepare for my move. but i need to be packing for a trip instead. it’s easy to get distracted, as you know!
