I Read It

In last month's I Read It carnival, Carrie shared a post about Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet. After her review, I knew I had to read it.

I am home with a sick little girl (she's sick enough to be home from preschool, but not sick enough to stay out of trouble), so I will simply point you to Carrie's review and say that this is a beautiful story, and I highly recommend it. Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet is about love, family, honor, prejudice, and fear, and I enjoyed every page.

Thanks, Carrie for your recommendation (which you read based on someone else's recommendation—I love that!). I am so glad I Read It!

Glad that you could still link up, and I'm glad that you enjoyed Carrie's recommendation!

And also turning my sights on YOU regarding Mysterious Benedict Society now that Dawn is all taken care of. ;D *evil chuckle*

They do, and I've added it to my admittedly long list of books to get one day at the library. I read the back at a bookstore and it does look really good.

Hope your best girl is feeling a lot better :) Happy Reading!
