1. 1Q84 by Murakami has been published by The Folio Society. I have the four other Murakami books they've published. However, as much as I want to add this one to my collection, I just can't wrap my head around the price. I feel like every year their prices go way up. This edition, which is broken up into two separate books, is priced at $215 (not including taxes and shipping.) Ugh. I feel like a brat for wanting this. LOL!
2. I'm finally organizing the books I received from publishers and feeling really grateful for them. There are quite a few that I didn't get around to, because of the timing. So, I'm hoping to read and post about them before the year ends. Wish me luck!
3. I chatted with an old friend from college/grad school. We laughed so much and kept referring to "back in the day," which made us laugh harder. I mean, how old are we? Also, I couldn't get over the coincidences of things she mentioned that I had just talked about with my family or I had just revisited as well. One of them was an old TV show called SeaQuest. Another was Designing Women. Talk about blasts from the past.
4. I'm still reading Notes To Self. It's a collection of personal essays, so I'm taking my time with it. Dipping in and out every day is really nice.
5. I'm watching a show called Hotel Costiera and really enjoying it. I like the actors and I've loving seeing Italy. Hoping they have a second season.
And now, I'm off to delete old emails and clean out my inbox. Wishing you all a lovely weekend. Happy reading!

I still need to read 1Q84. And I know what you mean about really wanting something that you don't really need and is a little pricey. Happens to me all the time. Enjoy your weekend! :D
