Taz's Book Bits

Yes, it's another blog about books.

Well, if you've been reading the paper, you will see I just wrote a review of Jennifer Weiner's "The Guy Not Taken." Like I said before, I have read "P.S. I Love You" and "Twilight." I haven't been able to write reviews just yet.

I am now reading Nora Roberts' "Angels Fall." It's kind of a murder mystery so far. It's pretty good.

After meeting Jodi Picoult a few weeks ago, I bought two of her books and will hopefully be reading those soon.

I guess you can tell that I like to read. I think the fall is a great time to read because the weather isn't as nice and it's getting chilly. It's a great time to snuggle up with a book.

I have a few different TV shows I like to watch ("The Office," "Project Runway") but on the nights those shows aren't on, I like to pick up a book. I read fairly fast and if it's a suspenseful book, I read even faster. Writing the reviews helps me to remember what I have read.

If you have any books that were exciting, fill me in! E-mail htassmer@berksmontnews.com or leave a comment on this blog.

Here comes more rain!

Books, books and more books

I just recently finished "P.S. I love you" which was very good. This book has also been made into a movie and stars Hilary Swank. I'm hoping to write a book review soon.

I finished a book, "The Guy Not Taken," a few weeks ago and will be posting a review for that soon.

Right now I am reading "Twilight," which is also being made into a movie. I started reading it last week and did a lot of reading yesterday. I am almost halfway through. It's sooo good. It's basically girl meets and falls in love with a vampire. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Yesterday was a great day to read with all of this rain. Couldn't do much else...

Have you read a good book lately? Let me know about it! Comment on here or e-mail me, htassmer@berksmontnews.com.

Book review on the way

Since there isn't much on TV, summer is a perfect time to catch up on reading. Well, at least for me it is.
In this upcoming edition (or the one after that) of The Southern Berks News, you will see a review for "Baby Proof" I wrote. "Baby Proof" is definitely "Chick Lit" or a book that is written for women. The book, written by Emily Giffin, is about a woman who doesn't want children having her world turned upside down by her husband who one day decides he does want kids. The book was so good that I read it in about three days.
I'm planning on reading "My Sister's Keeper" next. I'm going to the beach in August so I am hoping it will give me a chance to jump right into that one.
I'd also suggest that you read "Marley and Me." I published my review of that book in the fall. It is also being made into a movie and will star Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson. If you're an animal lover, you'll definitely love it.
If you have just read an interesting book, let me know. I'm always looking for books to read. E-mail me at htassmer@berksmontnews.com or post a comment on this blog.
