The beast has been finished

I have been reading this book for the last week. I can't remember the last time it took me a whole week to read a book but this is a big mother. 822 pages. I got it for 25 cents at the carnival at my kids school so really it was an excellent investment. Besides, I love the author.

I was really needing to finish the book. I did enjoy every minute of it but it's a bit of a downer. That and the fact that it never takes me that long to finish a book I enjoy was really working my nerves.

Last night I conquered the beast. I'm done. I'm vindicated. Now I feel as if I can move on with my life (ironic given the subject nature of the book). Time to watch the Real Housewives of the OC! I never said I wasn't lame!
