The Surf Road Book Club: August 2023

I'm not about to go on a rant here about the childcare crisis or how parents are somehow expected to take the entire month of August off from work because, why would camp be offered in August?! No, I'm not going to do that. Instead I'm going to tell you that I am currently working on 2 books for the August Surf Road Book Club, and having a hard time getting through them. I think this is mostly because I have not had time to read, but also because at least one of the books I am having a hard time getting into!

My Bookclub Picks for August

Continuing with my theme from last month's book club of easy-to-digest mysteries, I am reading The House in The Pines. I have heard great things about it from all of you, but I am finding that the author is giving me a LOT of detail that I can't imagine I need, and I find the main character pretty annoying.

Given the rave reviews I've heard I am going to try to push through, but I'm definitely curious to hear what you guys think if you read this (and haven't already).

Puppy Planning

As a reminder, we are planning for puppy... long term planning. I am currently reading The Other End of the Leash, which is all about how our body language impacts dogs, and how much more they notice about how we move than how we talk. It's fascinating, and I highly recommend it for anyone who is also getting or even who already has a dog!
