52 in 52

So, let's not talk about how long it has been since I wrote a post. We'll just agree to forget that.


Some of the first years in the program decided to read 52 books in 52 weeks this year. I thought this sounded like a grand idea. I think I can do this while finishing up my last semester in grad school. Here goes nothing...

Week 1:

I am almost done with it. I also read Wishful Drinking by Carrie as well. In the first I learned a lot about Fisher and her life. I never knew that her family was all equally famous. In this book though she explores some of the darker parts of her life, of which there are many. She talks about her relationship with her step-mother, Elizabeth Taylor, and her strange friendship with Michael Jackson. Overall a good quick read. I would suggest reading Wishful Drinking first, it gives a good background of her life rather than jumping straight into the shock treatment and drug and alcohol addictions.
