So I finished reading The Girl on the Train. Crazy book. I could have abandoned it at about the 1/3 mark but couldn’t bring myself to quit reading. It’s like the neighbors who fight outside, I know I should not listen but because they are so freaking loud, I must listen. The main character was so intriguing to me that I couldn’t stop reading. At the halfway point, I was all in and knew I wouldn’t stop reading. Holy total surprise ending, Batman!
I started cleaning my kitchen this morning. My curtains are washed and dried but not put back up. Upper cabinets are clean on the outside. Then my friend came over and I was done for the day.
I started the laundry. It’s washed and dried but not folded.
I started getting the outside furniture ready for spring. It’s set out but not cleaned up.
And I started a new book. Kitchens can wait. Laundry can wait. Furniture can wait. Just sayin’.
Yep – I get it! The house will always need cleaned… Enjoy your new book!
So was the ending good enough to the Girl on thre Train that I should pick it back up again and finish? I am living vicariously through you as you enjoy your Spring Break and I am still slaving away. Right now I am fantasizing about having clean cabinets. Wow! That would be satisfying to see. Seven more work days and counting! 🙂 You keep savoring!
Eh. Maybe in the summer. Don’t burn any daylight on it now. But do try to finish–Rachel’s a drunk, crazy for a reason and not particularly a deep character–but she does do the right thing.
Alright. I will give it another whirl in June. Thanks for recommendation
Your slice made my laugh! Sounds like me. I did, however, finish Girl on the Train. It was twisted but a good book overall.
I love that starting a new book also got done by you as you also started all those other necessary but definitely not as exciting things! No wonder those things will wait!
