Time to read for me

Tomorrow is technically my “spring break” so I’m putting away all the books I’m supposed to read and picking up a book I really want to read. Thank God. That romance is killing me (The Forever Kiss by Thea Devine). Beside her lack of talent for writing, the author has a rather gross obsession with nipples.
So, tonight I’m going to begin The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant which is apparently on the Best Sellers list right now. It’s set in Florence during the period of Savonarola and the “bonfire of Vanity”. I just watched a brilliant PBS documentary of the Medici family which touched on this topic and I found it really interesting. I’m looking forward to a night of good reading, sweet cups of tea and lots of dark Dove chocolate :).
