The first one is called, SARAH'S KEY. I bought it for my friend Areta because she took such good care of us on our last trip to Kaysville and she was going out of town and I wanted her to have a good book to read. April McMurtrey recommended this book to me and so I bought it for Areta. OH MY HECK!!!! This is NOT a book to give to a friend who is going on vacation! I didn't know it until Areta gave it to me to read after she was done!
It is a book about the Holocaust and it is a good book, but a hard book to read. I sat in my bathtub and SOBBED reading this book! I called Areta and apologized for giving her this book to read on vacation!
I talked to April about it tonight and April said, "it is the best book I have ever hated!" So, read it if you want to sob and be reminded of how great and easy you have it.
The other book is called A RELIABLE WIFE. I saw this book when I was looking at books for Areta but I didn't know if it was "safe". I saw it at the library this past week and decided to give it a try. Apparently, it was on the best sellers list etc.
It was a weird book, a book that was written by a man-if that makes any sense. I can always tell when a book is written by a man except for MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA (I LOVE that book). Men have a different slant on things, everything has to do with sex and not that it was described in great detail like a porno book but it is like the reason for living. 3 main characters which are very flawed and I for one would never forgive some of the things that these characters did and yet they are supposedly "redeemed" at some point during the book.
I think I am sick of the world's view that sex=love. I don't know how many books or movies or songs talk about love anymore. I remember one of my friends really liked a guy because he was cute but he wasn't good and I asked her, "is this the kind of guy that would hold back your hair while you are throwing up in the toilet because you are pregnant? Is this the guy who will eat oatmeal every night for dinner for a month (and not complain) because it is the only thing you can make that doesn't stink? Is this the guy who will give your baby their first bath in the hospital, who will change diapers and will stay up with the baby because you are so tired? Will this man hold your catheter for you while you get out of the shower after having surgery? Will this man promise to pluck your chin hairs if you go senile?...that is love, that is the kind of man that you want...maybe I should write a book about that!

You should write a book about that, unfortunately there are not enough of "those kind" of guys for every girl, because they are not taught that at home. I hope my boys will be men like that. On a side note will you ask Steve (if he is going to scout camp) to check on Stevie every once and awhile for us. Sending him on his first plane trip to Oakland on Thursday for Scout camp, so tell McKay to say hi to Stevie.
Steve is that man for you! You are blessed.
