My nightstand exists for the sole purpose of holding all the books I’m ‘currently reading.’
I find it weirdly comforting to go to bed at night looking at a stack of unused books – their stories just waiting patiently to welcome me. I suppose it would seem more normal to have a picture of my children, maybe even my husband, next to my bed. But, not in my case.
The dresser is for photos. The nightstand is for books.
And porn.
Ha! Just kidding.
Sorta.
Anyway.
Since I’m coming off Spring Break and a glorious week of reading multiple books that were in no way related to my studies, I thought I’d share some titles with you. Plus, Spring is right around the corner and that means afternoons reading in the warm sun and extra evening hours filled with of wine and stories on the patio. Enjoy, my friends.
The Little Giant of Aberdeen County
The Shortest Distance Between Two Women
Olive Kitteridge – this one won the Pulitzer!
My stack isn’t really that big, so feel free to leave your suggestions. What should I be sure to pick up next?
You sure got alot read over the week. I have no suggestions for your stack but a Jackie Collins will fit in with the porn. Just kidding. Sort of.
Yay thanks! I'm always looking for new books to read so I'll have to remember this list! I just finished Water For Elephants, and I loved it. Also on my night table (I am just like you, but porn is IN my underwear drawer – ha!) I have: The Book of Negros, Revolutionary Road, and currently reading The Help, which is awesome!
