So I made the goal this year to read 15 books. I am happy to report that today I finished my 12th book for the year. The Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett. Such a great book. I already loved The Maltese Falcon and thought I would give this a try. Hammett did not disappoint. Great characters, great plot and I did not figure it out until the end. I love books that keep me guessing and this one did. Maybe someone more attuned would have figured it out earlier, but I loved the suspense. All in all, I give it a 10.
In other news, the school year started with a great big bang. Time seems to slip by me without ever finishing all I need to do. For instance, I need to have a book read by tomorrow for a project meeting with my partner. I have finished approximately 50 of its 250 pages. I have a full day of work and not much time otherwise. So I guess that instead of grading papers, I will be reading. At least the book is interesting! So if you don't know already, I started grad school, hence the project. I do not know what I was thinking, but I do know that I can get it done and its okay to not get all As. I was very happy with the B+ on my first paper. Gosh I have changed since high school. That's a good thing!
