There is a point (or should be a point) in all good books where you're reading and when the children call you think, "just a few more pages."
I hit this point a little after page 50 for this book. I carried it with me last night to the salon for my I've-worn-a-headband-to-keep-my-hair-from-annoying-me-too-many-days-in-a-row haircut, and I never got the urge to throw it against the wall, but I was very close to the put it down and forget to pick it back up point.
Then they broke the heroes.
They showed the characters as children. They pointed out all the things these women had to recover from to make them who they are. They gave me a reason to care.
And now I'm caught.
Now I need to go so I can read "just a few more pages."
See you next week.
I hope you have a "just a few more pages" book to keep you busy until then.
