I've been reading

My last day off school was two weeks ago yesterday.  It has all been at the high school, which gives me plenty of time to catch up on my reading.  This was especially true last week when I was helping to supervise study hall during the state testing...a total of ten hours!  A couple of weeks ago I had started reading the Lucy Stone mystery series after I saw that another blogger was reading it.  I didn't want "heavy" or dark mystery dramas, and this sounded more like a set of "Murder, She Wrote" books.  I loved the first one, and was delighted to return it and begin the next one.  Our local library is part of the county system, and sometimes in order to read a book we need to request it from another branch.  That happened last week, and after study hall last Monday I was in need and the next one wasn't ready.  I went to the school library and checked out The Help.  I really enjoyed reading it, but the next book in the mystery series was ready and I couldn't want to get to it.  I finished The Help, returned it to the library, and was anxious to get started.  Sadly, it was a little disappointing as it took her out of her quaint little Maine town.  I went ahead and requested the next one, and began it after finishing the disappointing one.  I was frustrated to learn it also takes her out of her town.  Ugh!  Hopefully I can find another one that I will enjoy more...although with school winding down my days of sitting in a classroom looking for something to do are coming to an end!
