I am reading BRAIN GAMES by Elkhonon Goldberg, Ph.D. It's about how to lower your brains age in just minutes a day.

That's odd, my kids say mine has been lowered for years....they also say I have the attention span of a gnat...oh look, a bird!

But what do they know?

JJ, I think you'd like this book cause you love puzzles. It is filled with mental type puzzles and exercises that really make you think. Some are easier than others, some are real ball busters. These exercises are suppose to LOWER your brains age to when it was young, not at all fuzzy in our thinking or foregetful... It works.

I just finished The Magician's Assistant, a great story and well written book with an unusual love story.

Before that I read The Abstinence Teacher, perhaps one of the stupidest books I have read in quite some time.

I read more than one book at a time, but only if they are different genres. Otherwise I get way too confused.

Would you believe that Ann Patchett was here in town last week and I didn't go see/hear her? I'm such a ninny.

It's 190 pages of mind teasing puzzles, with the answers all in the back of the book. It is amazingly hard and challenging to the mind...

I just finished Very Valentine by Adriana Trigiani.

I enjoyed it very much. A 34-year old italian woman living with her grandmother and apprenticing as a shoemaker in the family business since 1903 finds love and her true passion as an artist.

This is the 1st book I've read by this author and I'll check out others.

I'm still reading The Craftsman, as described earlier.
http://www.boomerwomenspeak.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=191716&page=6

But now, I have something more urgent to complete reading that I've committed for a book review to be published in a work-related journal. It's a law book on insurance for commercial leases. Totally thrilling. crazy

Followed by another book I committed to read and write for another book review to be published in few months later next year. Another law book on electronic documentation, court trial and electonic discovery...actually a hot topic among some folks in the legal world. Strange as this may seem, I look forward to the latter not the former book

I have to tend my career....this activity is part of it.
