TBR -- Going on my pile of books I still need to read.

I confess that I bought the book because Steve Martin wrote it. I really had no idea what the book would be like but it is not what I expected. In the beginning I felt it was a little slow but then I got into the rhythm of his style. A very interesting look at relationships. I had no idea that Steve Martin had this type of story within him.

Released on Tuesday, April 08, 2003 at McMennamins Kennedy School in Portland, Oregon USA.

Plan to release at the meet-up tonight.

Just got this at the bookcrossing meeting tonite.

WOW. Im not trying to sound like a fanatic-but i REALLY liked this book. (I couldn't get the image of Steve Martin narrating out of my head though) I loved the witty remarks, and the extremely accurate analysis of the thought patterns of men and women. There were times where i wondered where the connections were between the characters. I was very pleased. I want to also note, I was very touched by this book. I was able to identify with Mirabelle, and have found it hard to continue moving along at times. I found this a cheap inspiration!
~Please note, this is the longest journal entry i have EVER made for ANY book. This is huge for me. I cant say this was my all time favorite really, but i was very moved by it.
Enjoy... Release notes coming soon.

good, will most likely give it back to the person who gave it to me then they will hide it so you can find it

this was a good book. I enjoyed it. Steve martin did a good job.

i finally got it back! OK, heres the scoop, i read it, passed it on to my x-boyfriend(miatahitman) He passed it on to his friend, he read it. Then my x was going to give it back so i could pass it on in the "already bookcrossed bookbox", and he supposedly dropped it off at my work, but i never saw or heard about it's whereabouts until a few days ago.

~~~~~Heres a play by play look at where Shop Girl was~~~~~~
-X-boyfriend goes into the Drive thru Starbucks, hands it to the "tall bleach blond haired guy"(i still don't know who this was) Who put in the back room on a shelf above my level( could be virtually anywhere in the back room.
-Sits on the shelf for like, 2 months
-Someone who i work with finds it, and takes it home(without journaling mind you)
-I bring it up to her, unsuspecting and she tells me she has it.
-I tell her to finish reading, and ask to get it back when shes done.
-Got it back today.

Ok, thats what happened to it. I hope the in depth detail makes up for the fact that it was off the charts for so long...
I am putting it in the Already been bookcrossed bookbox.

I just love the adventure this book has already had. It should be having more as it is part of the Already Been Bookcrossed Bookbox, Round 2.

I am just thrilled that it went to London66 since I know this book just touched part of her soul. :)

So far each time I start this another bookring/bookray book arrives and I drop Shopgirl. Since I've connected so with previous items by Martin I want to read these. (How many book rings/rays did I join anyway??)
