What a wonderful and fun time I had today reading Nora Ephron’s new book “I Feel Bad About My Neck & Other Thoughts On Being A Woman.” It was often laugh-out-loud funny, poignant and filled with words of wisdom and wit. The book is a collection of essays in which she shares her experiences reaching that ‘certain age’ and dealing with her ‘neck’ wrinkles, beauty maintenance (hair, skin, exercise,), parenting, gourmet cooking, hating her purse,her love affair with NY, and many other fun as well as serious issues.
In Ms. Ephron’s essay dealing with her love of books she writes about a book she enjoyed: “I loved the book. I was transported into its world. I was reminded of things in my own life.”
And that is exactly how I felt reading “I Feel Bad About My Neck & Other Thoughts On Being A Woman.”
A Winner!!

I had a great time today walking to my local library, enjoying two of my favorite activities - reading and walking. I’m a regular visitor to the library and love the amazing variety of books,CD’s and DVD’s I can browse thru and borrow. I love books and like most readers I’ve got my favorite authors (Nelson DeMille, Dan Silva, John Grisham, William Berendt to name a few); my favorite type of books (mysteries, courtroom dramas, spy stories,etc) and there’s something for everyone within the walls of this magical place.

I recommend visiting a library to all my friends. However, if that’s not convenient I suggest going online to a local branch.

I especially believe that children and students as well as adults sign up for a library card and take advantage of all the benefits offered. In my opinion, the library is a perfect example of
