Yes, indeed. I have been talking about doing it but not sure how I felt about it or how my eyes would do. But, I started reading again today. I haven't read a book in probably six or seven years. Really! I got "Yours Cruelly, Elvira" in the mail today and couldn't wait to read it. Do you know Elvira? Cassandra Peterson in drag that is. She is witty, intelligent, and engaging. The book is fun and a quick read which I like. Who doesn't love her? I even have a second book on its way to me. That one is Reader's Digest's funny stories and jokes. Thought that would be fun too. And, of course, I will be sharing the funnier stories with you folks.

I'll have to keep an eye out for it. I'm glad that you're reading again. Nothing like getting lost in a good book.

It's a couple of years old and is from Hatchett Books. I only got to read a little while today.

Elvira should be a fascinating person to read about. I have to start reading as well. I've been on a 2-year hiatus.
