Blog Entry 3 of 4 Escalade Escapades

As most stay-at-home moms will tell you, life is pretty hairy much of the time! My days are spent dashing between my kids‘ schools, the mall, the gym and the coffee shop (you need a lot of caffeine to carry out this schedule!). It is a from far cry from my days at the University of Colorado and then as a high school history teacher, when I had all the time in the world to debate and discuss politics, history and current events with whoever would listen (or was trapped in a desk). These days, when I need a little history and culture I sneak away with a good book to a quiet spot in my home. Reading has become my escape from the hectic life as a mom and wife. My blog will focus on great (but not too intellectual) reads. I tend to read books with a little history, a little sex and a whole lot of drama. Some days (and weeks), I can't find time to read more than my "Everyday with Rachel Ray" mag. so at times I may have to share stories of the crazy adventures that Broomfield (its true!) offers me.

Chris, a fellow CU Alum, had a great idea! If you don't have time for a "live" book club but love to read.... Think about this:

I am in the middle of a book now.... I, Elizabeth by Rosalind Miles. If anyone wants to pick it up and jump in... then you can add commentary and discussion when I do my blog on the book!

I warn you... it is a long one (574 or so pages). You might also want to review your Tudor history too before committing to this one.

The book is not as juicy as The Other Boleyn Girl, but worth a try nonetheless!
I am not too far in.... read my section of CU Grad Gab for my excuses!

Off to read!
