I’m currently reading a couple of books. How to knit a wild bikini by Christie Ridgeway, an escapist romance that I am only a couple of chapters into. From previews I read about it, it looks like it may get a little steamy…

Also by my bedside is A Pocketful of History: Four Hundred Years of America–One State Quarter at a Time by Jim Noles. It is a fascinating book of readable nonfiction about the history behind each state quarter. Over about ten years, the US Mint has issued a quarter commemorating each state with a different design.  I discovered this book through my daily email from DearReader.com. It’s an online book club and every weekday I get a small portion of a book in my email. There’s a different book each week and I get to read the first two to three chapters. That’s usually enough to tell me whether or not I want to read it.

Your turn: tell me what you’re reading or just finished and what you think of it. ; )
