Summer Reading After Labor Day?

Posted on September 9, 2010December 15, 2011 by Jacky Hackett
I didn’t get all of my summer reading done by Labor Day.  Oh well, at least I am not wearing white.  Technically, I didn’t finish my summer reading, I never got to The Heights or Medium Raw, I need to carve out more time for reading.  They will go on my Fall/Winter reading list coming soon.  Here is the final book on my list.
Forever: A Novel
By Pete HamillCompleted!  Would you want to live forever?  This book really gets you thinking about the blessings and the curses of living forever.  While it may be story of fiction and a bit fairytale, it is based on the rich history of the Irish and New York City.  A great recommendation!  Though I will note I was a bit disappointed in the ending, but don’t want to give too much away.
Check out what other people are reading over at September’s Booking It on Life As Mom.

      I've recommended this book to a million people and glad someone finally read it. I don't remember the ending as much I remember the great hostorical stories about Ireland and NYC.

      Cormac reminded me of Uncle Dave a wee bit! And the disappointment in the ending certainly did not take away from the enjoyment of the book. Thanks for the recommendation.
