But I am definitely going to focus and savor the four new episodes! I thought I'd probably watch one a week.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-21701766321800662452016-11-30T12:52:50.160-10:002016-11-30T12:52:50.160-10:00Believe it or not, I think I'm getting a littl...Believe it or not, I think I'm getting a little "Gilmore"-ed out! I started my re-watch in October with season 5, so that'll be over 60 episodes in a little over two months! After I finish season 7, I'll probably take a short break before watching "A Year in the Life," and then do maybe one episode a week. I definitely want to savor the four new episodes!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-3476426735981996622016-11-30T12:49:54.410-10:002016-11-30T12:49:54.410-10:00I know, the yarn dyer did a great job pairing colo...I know, the yarn dyer did a great job pairing colors! I did decide to go with teal over orange for the last section; that way it'll match my winter coat (whenever I get around to wearing that again) and it'll look slightly different from the gazillion other projects made from the kit.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-3955516053912951852016-11-30T12:48:05.013-10:002016-11-30T12:48:05.013-10:00Hmm, maybe it IS an adult book.

I assumed it was YA because he's written other YA stuff, some people tagged it as YA on Goodreads and the main character is 16 when the book opens. But, like I said, the writing seems a bit much for teens. My library organizes stuff weird so I didn't pay it any mind that it didn't have a YA sticker.<br /><br />It seems like the readers who made it through rated it really highly, so maybe you sort of adjust to the writing after a while. I couldn't find the motivation to read at all yesterday, but I think I'll give it one more good try and then either decide to abandon it or power through.<br /><br />Don't let my thoughts discourage you from at least trying it, though! The plot really does seem intriguing!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-31000452221065255092016-11-30T08:35:57.223-10:002016-11-30T08:35:57.223-10:00what a lovely item to knit while watching gilmore ...what a lovely item to knit while watching gilmore girls :) I started watching and I'm savoring the show which means I'm slowly watching. karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252685705241032079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-85580547543081699512016-11-30T08:08:45.160-10:002016-11-30T08:08:45.160-10:00Beautiful knit... and those cookies look so good! ...Beautiful knit... and those cookies look so good!

I still haven't read it but now that I've read your post, I'm a tad worried to pick it up. A lot of people love it so I'm surprised I haven't heard this before.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07496803823870196862noreply@blogger.com
