What did you read over break?

That's what a 3rd grade teacher asked me in the hall the other day.  So I started telling her about all the books I brought home from school to read.  New books I bought and put out right away for the kids, so I never had a chance to read them.  As I was telling her all this, she stopped me and said, "No.  What ADULT books did you read over break?"  After having to think about it, I had to laugh.  I read 6 kids chapter books and 1 adult book.

I like this teacher a lot and she did laugh with me when I had to think about the adult books I read.  The sacrifices we make for our kids...

Anyway, the only adult book I read was Then Came You by Jennifer Weiner.  I've read several other books by her, and like those, this one did not disappoint!  She has a way of telling stories about multiple people who seem to have nothing to do with each other, but as you keep reading, you see how their lives are intertwined.  If that sounds like something you'd like, check it out!
