Yay! warm weather!!!!

I thought it might be fun to keep people up to date on what I've been reading. I have so many books that I could be a library all by myself. I thought I would write book reviews mostly just for fun but also as a way for others to find something they might like to read.

So here it is book review number one: The Mummy or Ramses the Damned by Anne Rice. Ok first off, let me say I love almost everything I have ever read that this author has written. This book is mostly set in Egypt while it was still THE hotspot for wealthy Americans and Europeans to go for the winter. This book was alot of fun to read because Anne Rice always paints vivid pictures of the characters. Basic storyline is as follows: An egyptologist awakens an imortal man who falls in love with the egyptologist's daughter. They go to Egypt to see the Ancient Ruins where the immortal finds the body of his lost love. I don't want to give too much away but its a great book fraught with moral dillemna, sex, murder, big scary mummies and ancient magic (sort of). What's not to love?

Ok, well obviously I'm not the best book reviewer but I've always been bored with book reviews I've read. They were always too dry
