"Book of the Year", rave critics*

*ok, raves me.

I know it's a bit early to announce my fav book of the year, but I kinda already did in February. And up until yesterday, A Northern Light was by far the best thing I got my hands on. But that was then...

And now comes My Most Excellent Year: A Novel of Love, Mary Poppins, and the Boston Red Sox by Steve Kluger. This book could not have been better. T.C. and Augie are brothers--not by the same parents. And then there is Alejandra. And a deaf 6 year old named Hucky. And the Sox, Mary Poppins, Buck Weaver, Jackie O, and Judy Garland all make appearances too. I can't say more than that or I will tell you the entire plot. But it was simply put, wonderful.

Him?! Really? He's the killer?

Last night brought us some exciting season finales. Most notably, Bones. Does this mean the end Zach? Is he crazy? Oh well, at least we will have our Sweets. I tell ya, I was getting nervous there for a minute or two. And we get treated to David B. without a shirt AND in uniform! Personally, the uniform does it for me.

And I did see the season enders of Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother--and, yes there were tears. Barney and Robin?!?! really? and Ted? oookay...next year, can we please let Alyson Hannigan be the star. Please???? And can I just comment on how much I enjoyed the kiss between Leonard and Penny on The Big Bang Theory. Bravo to the writers for not dragging this romance out. Nothing turns me off like a dragged out romance. Boring!

If you have no idea what I am talking about above, I suggest you use some of your summer catching up on what could be 3 of the 5 best shows on television!*

Summer is just about here, and you know what that means!!! Less tv reviews, more book talk!

How awesome are those Red Sox? Way awesome!


*Totally my humble opinion.
