I haven't read it, but I will definitely check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!
I really liked Still Alice. Have you read Left Neglected by Lisa Genova? It was a really good audio book.
Have a great week!

I have Left Neglected on Sparky (Kindle), and I do want to read Still Alice. I'm also a fan of the Jennifer Crusie books, but it's been awhile.
Enjoy your week!
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
The Immortal LIfe is a good one, it keeps appearing in my life through random conversations!
I want to read Still Alice and am trying to get my book discussion group to select it. I enjoyed Bet Me when I read it last year and just finished another book by Crusie this past week.
I'll have to check out your list of 2012 favorites. I can't believe we are halfway through the year already!
Still Alice was a wonderful read! enjoy all your reads.
Still Alice is on my wishlist.
Wishing you a great reading week!

Bet Me is amazing…love it. When you read the end – its romance and krispy kremes. Amazingness!!
Have a great reading week! What are YOU reading @ the Brunette Librarian??
I really enjoyed the Immortal Life and Still Alice! Great reads!
Have you read Rules of Civility by Amor Towles? I highly recommend it as Audio.
