Happy May Day! Did you remember to "RABBIT RABBIT RABBIT"?

Early this morning I finished what might be called chick lit but was a very enjoyable read. It's THE OPPOSITE OF MAYBE, a new novel by Maddie Dawson. The back of book describes it as "Funny, painful, heartbreaking and real; a lyrical, realistic portrayal of a modern-day relationship. A heartfelt and exceptionally human novel about the best mistakes a person can make."
Would give you the AMAZON URL but my new laptop just arrived and I can't yet do diddly on it. I miss my WIN XP!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY READING!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Carci. Unfortunately dh was released from rehab hospital Sunday and was readmitted to local hospital Weds. Has ruptured, infected diverticulum. Has been on nothing by mouth for two days to rest the colon, IV's in both arm for feeding, hydration and medication. Surgeon and GI doc hoping to avoid surgery. Has lost over ten lbs. since hospitalized. Very weak and will go to a different rehab hospital when discharged to build up his strength. I've been at hospital most of every day for three weeks and haven't been able to read. Miss my stories but need to set priorities right now. Son flew in from SLC yesterday and daughter arriving from Virginia Mon. Nice to have some family here for
awhile. BTW, the Parkinson's diagnosis and been refuted by the other doctors. Internist continues to think it's essential tremors. Time will tell.

Oh Rapa - I certainly feel for you and am glad you have family there to help.  I hope you are taking care of yourself in addition to your DH.  Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. 

Rapa hang in there through these trying times.

Good to have support from the family.

Good wishes to you and your husband

I saw the Walk Me Home but ended up buying The Bloodletter's Daughter by Linda Lafferty

So sorry to hear that.  I've added him to my prayer list which gets longer every day.  :(

Dear Rapa,  you are really having it lately.  Hope the arrival of your son and daughter will give you some breathing room.  My very best wishes to your DH, and to you, m'dear.  

Yes hang in there, rapa, hope things get better for you and hubby soon.

I just finished Louise Penny’s fourth Chief Inspector Gamache novel, A Rule Against Murder, another tour de force by the writer who has become my favorite crime novelist.  This is the one that featured the dysfunctional Morrow family. Wonderful in every way.


Also in this novel, the action takes place at a resort some miles distant from Three Pines. So of the Three Pines characters, the reader sees little or nothing of most of the fascinating residents of that small charming village, including Gabri, Olivier, Ruth the poet and, my personal favorite, the wise old (well not so old) book store owner, Myrna. I rather missed that.


In any case, I completely embrace the comment by one of the reviewers of Penny’s series: “If you don’t give your heart to Gamache, you may have no heart to give.”

Lourache,  Louise Penny is doing rereads of her series - at gamacheseries.com - recap of chapter 24 - 44 of The Cruelest Month at present, if you are interested. 

I missed the reread, but I appreciate the website. I even signed up to receive Louise Penny updates.  Thanks a lot.
