Yesterday I did something I haven't done in Years!!! :) I stayed up with a good book! :)
I just read the first few lines the previous night, to get a feel for it, and was instantly drawn in! As I was attempting to slow my mind to sleep, I put it aside and chose Sudoku, instead, as I knew there'd be no sleeping with this book! :)
So yesterday, after we'd eaten, I decided to pick it up again. ... and I couldn't put it down! :) On occasion I'd hear a comment from my Honey, "Pretty funny, huh?" bringing my attention to the fact that I'd just giggled out loud, or, "Must be a good book." when I'd been silent for hours, lost in it's pages! :) When night came, I knew there'd be no sleeping until I knew the ending! :)
So when my Sweetie got ready for bed, I did too, so I could slip quietly into bed later, and told him that I was going to finish it before coming to bed. I made a point to read in the front room under a lamp that wouldn't cast a glow under the bedroom door, that may disturb him.
When I finally finished the last sentence of the story, I peeked at the kitchen clock and was surprised to see it was 2:30am! I felt like a school girl, staying up with my nose in a good book on a summer night! :)
The title of this fictional novel is Edenbrooke, written by Julianne Donaldson, and it is either her first or second book! Well done! :) It is a sweet, thrilling, suspenseful, page turning romance that was wholesome and thoroughly enjoyable! :)
At the top of the cover are the words "A Proper Romance". It was a True romance that was about Real Love, and not the cheep ones about lust that turned me off of reading romance novels years ago! :)
I'll be looking for new books by her, now! :)
If you're looking for a good page turner, I highly recommend this one! :)
Happy Reading! :)
