I also jot down book recommendations and where they came from in a cute journal bought for the purpose - I am also picky about these- my interest must really be high. I love that you use a blue card - that's so collegiate = ) Finally, I nearly added Crow Lake to my shortlist of book recommendations for my bookclub but didn't....it's definitely in the journal though. Thanks for your review - I enjoyed the excerpt. It reminds me of when my daughter was a baby and my husband and I were trying to think of nursery rhymes - we both drew a blank.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07208766776468157501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-87155090101330260722007-10-31T20:35:00.000+00:002007-10-31T20:35:00.000+00:00I tend to rely on Bloglines, which is great if I j...I tend to rely on Bloglines, which is great if I just want to go through and read posts, but horrible if I know I want to go back and leave a comment (well, not really horrible), as I end up with so many saved posts that by the end of the week going through my account is a bit of a nightmare--loads and loads of posts to scroll through--and then I end up commenting on a post someone wrote days ago. And then I don't always have my notebook handy to write titles down, so I end up dozens of little pieces of paper floating around. Someday I'll get a good routine. And Crow Lake has always been one of those books I've considered reading, but now I will have to look for it. Now to write it down on a little piece of paper....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-81302770094795262562007-10-31T12:48:00.000+00:002007-10-31T12:48:00.000+00:00Sounds good actually.You misused an apostrophe in ...Sounds good actually.<BR/>You misused an apostrophe in there.

I have a few that get checked first thing each morning - of which this is one; then I work my way down my saved list if I have time. Unfortunately I can't post from work so if I see an entry I want to respond to I have to jot it down and do it from home that evening.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I think your blue card idea is great. I see lots of books on blogs that appeal and tend to jot them down on loose bits of paper; which subsequently get lost. I am now taking a white note card with me to work tomorrow!Possum Magichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001214613992203628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-19812074036228985132007-10-31T09:13:00.000+00:002007-10-31T09:13:00.000+00:00Simon, thank you for reminding me about this book!...Simon, thank you for reminding me about this book! I read it three or four years ago and loved it. I must dig it out, blow the dust off (housework v. second place to reading and writing chez nous) and enjoy it again.<BR/>Also, after your recommendation yesterday am trying to track down a copy of Miss Hargreaves.Alishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406189984167289987noreply@blogger.com
