The Dipper Defense

You may have noticed my absence here on Book Barmy.  I apologize for neglecting you, but I’m going to plead the “dipper” defense.

This is a Dipper and he hops along a stream dipping in and out of the water, taking little samples of surface bugs and flies.  Never lingering in one place, he has to try every nook and cranny of the stream bed. I’ve been doing the same thing with books.  Dipping in and out of a pile of books that landed in my reading nook.  I’m changing books like a teenage girl changes outfits.

I open one book, read a chapter, then pick up another to taste that one — then skim the back cover of another and before you know it, I’m into that one. Must Focus …

Luckily my dippyness (yup, I just made that up) has recently subsided and I’m almost finished  a couple of these, so proper book reviews will resume shortly.

 

In the meantime, is anyone else really sad to see this series end?

The Good Wife-superb writing and a gasp-inducing storyline involving lawyers, politics and sex – some of the best television ever.

I’m especially going to miss this guy — sighhhhhh.
