Bad:
I'm not doing a very good job keeping my resolution to blog more. I probably won't have a real post up until next month. But, I'm thinking of making it fantastic. An in-depth review of Snooki's
novel, perhaps (Come on, NYT, and you pick on memoir?). I read the acknowledgements at Target the other day, while my husband was looking at electronics. I can honestly say, it affected me.
Somehow "A Little Taste of Heaven" allows us to see intrapersonal experiences and conflicts unfold- ordinary pain, worries, and yearnings for relief met with wisdom- in a page - not easy.
