get caught reading

i loved mystery books as a kid. from encyclopedia brown to enid blyton (the famous/fabulous?? five) to nancy drew, i think i read them all. nancy drew was by far my favourite. oh memories of going into the library at maple grove public school and seeing the shelves lined with every single copy of the nancy drew series - the pink hardcover ones, of course. i stopped reading mysteries a while back, the reason unknown, however going to the oakville library has renewed my zeal for these treasures. i do enjoy a good agatha christie novel - i borrowed one last thursday, so i could have a book to read on the train when i go to school. well, friday came, and friday went, and i had read the whole book. they are so engrossing, i could hardly put it down! (i do highly recommend agatha, she's quite the author, and is sure to keep you guessing until the end. talented woman indeed.) so, yesterday i had to make my way back to the library to get another book or two - i decided against a mystery book for the train simply because they are best read at once. i chose to borrow "le divorce" and "the nanny diaries" instead. i read "the nanny diaries" last summer, but enjoyed it so much i thought i'd read it again. girls, it is a fun read - entertaining for sure - the story follows a college student who works as a nanny for a rich new york family, her adventures and mishaps recorded in a manner that makes you want to keep turning those pages. i started "le divorce" on the train ride home from school today - a movie based on the book came out a while ago and is on video and dvd now i believe. i decided against watching the movie and chose to stretch my imagination by reading the book. so far, so good. i'm looking forward to reading more, and am restraining myself from picking it up at home and reading it all. save it for the train ride abbs.
