Has anyone got the book yet ??
I am have to wait till Friday probably to get mine, unless I can call into the library tomorrow on our way shopping.
Love
I went to the library a couple of weeks ago but all copies were out. I put a hold on a copy but haven't heard from them yet :( I hope it comes soon!!
Yep, I've got it but haven't started reading it yet. 8-[ I'll get started very soon though!
Got & started reading it yesterday :)
I got it yesterday too, and have started reading
Woo hoo! The library has a copy for me. Will go and get it on Monday and start reading....
I will hopefully get it sometime this morning. Our library has a copy in I just have to renew my membership 8-[

Just got mine from the library this morning, but probabl won't start reading it till later in the week... It looks good though!
Got mine from the library yesterday afternoon and nearly halfway through it 8-[
So far I am enjoying it in the sense that I know it is a real experience as it is what the author actually did. Finding it to be an easy read with the relatively short chapters, so I don't get bored with it like I do when books have a 30 page chapter lol.
Love
I finally picked up a copy today (after 2 failed attempts when the fricken library was closed ](*,) ). I have started reading it and am enjoying it so far. It's pretty easy to read.
I'm just over halfway as well, finding it a great book to read, very easy and I am actually looking forward to reading more. Morrie sounds like a delightful character!
I have finished it 8-[ Didn't mind the book at all actually.
How is everyone else going ?
Love
Getting there slowly.....
Me too, Sarah. I am trying to read a little before going to sleep each night but I get through a couple of pages and fall asleep... LOL... the joys of motherhood, hey?
I've finished too...actually I couldn't put it down...
I have finished too... it was quite good. How's everyone else going?
I cried at the end too Shannon!
Going pretty slack here. I have vowed to get it finished by the end of the week.
That's a good idea, Shannon. I usually just watch telly. Gab only feeds for 5 minutes each side now but I guess that's better than not getting any read at all.
Actually, I got a fair bit done last night because there's was absolute jack on TV.
THE FIRST TUESDAY
LOL - love it! What a fantastic way of looking at losing one's independence! It definitely puts a positive slant on it all, hey?:
"Because it's the ultimate sign of dependency. Someone wiping your bottom. But I'm working on it. I'm trying to enjoy the process."
Enjoy it?
"Yes. After all, I get to be a baby one more time."
This is just a general question relating really to the whole book.... Does anyone find themselves trying to look at things differently? Trying to be a bit more like Morrie? I found myself last night when I was cranky with Aaron (well afterwards) just trying to say ok I was angry, it's over & trying to move on. It seemed to work & I got over the arguement much quicker if that makes sense?
Defnitely, Sarah. It kind of makes me want to get more out of each day, that's for sure.
Grrr I haven't been able to get this one yet - still on reserve. I'm picking up Septembers later on today so I'll just have to read it after 8-[
This thread will be closed tomorrow morning girls, but the review one will remain open.
Love
