Uh oh. Tomorrow is April 1st… aka April Fool’s Day… a day I just can’t fully embrace. There’s just something a little mean about the day, you know? I’m sure there are many harmless pranks that are being planned -and will be sprung on the unsuspecting, but generally I don’t love the idea that lots of energy is put into making someone look or feel uncomfortable. (Honestly? I don’t like surprises any day of the year -so it could just be me.) Anyway. I know that I don’t plan to prank anyone and I’m hoping not to be pranked in return! To help stay out of the way all those wild and crazzzyyy kids -how about a new book to read! How about one of these titles newly added to The Reading Room:
Johnny Carson by Henry Bushkin
The Price of Innocence by Lisa Black
Rasputin’s Shadow by Raymond Khoury
The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion
Bridget Jones, Mad about the Boy by Helen Fielding
Good luck to us all tomorrow -whichever way you’re planning your day!
