I'd seen a lot of talk about this book, and while I'm not really a Marvel fan I decided to give this a try. One thing I have to say about Marvel is they have a lot of fun with their characters. Imagine a girl with the power of squirrels, trying to start college while saving the world. I totally want to cosplay her now.

Around the World in a Bad Mood by Rene Foss, 200 pages
One of my guilty pleasures is nonfiction books about people with interesting or odd jobs. This book is told by a flight attendant and while it's not as funny or risque as "Coffee, Tea or Me" it's still pretty good.

Something From the Oven, Reinventing Dinner in 1950s America by Laura Shapiro, 306 pages
Picked up this book at the Outlet Mall in the Lake of the Ozarks. It was an interesting look at how the food industry worked at changing how people looked at cooking in the 1950s. Pushing processed foods was a business that needed women to believe they hated cooking and/or it took too much time to cook from scratch. Very well done and an intriguing read.
The Chisellers by Brendan O'Carroll, 190 pages
The end of a great trilogy. I was heartbroken, which is a sign of characters that really grabbed you.
Mammy by Brendan O'Carroll, 174 pages
I love Mrs. Brown's Boys on BBC so I had to read the books the show was based on. Much sadder, but a great read.
