Thank You Notes by Jimmy Fallon



I started reading this book on a whim and I am so glad I did. I am a huge Jimmy Fallon fan which was my basis for picking up the book, but I never expected to laugh out loud at it. It is short and comical; easily read in an hour.

Jimmy Fallon is very thankful. And in this first book to come from his TV show, he expresses his gratitude for everything from the light bulb he's too lazy to replace to the F12 button on his computer's keyboard. He thanks microbreweries for making his alcoholism seem like a neat hobby. He thanks the name "Lloyd" for having two L's. Otherwise it would just sound like "Loyd." He thanks the slow-moving family walking in front of him on the sidewalk. Without this "barricade of idiots," he might never have been forced to walk in the street and risk getting hit by a car in order to get around them. He's thankful to you, the person reading this right now. It means you're considering buying this book. You should do it. You will be thankful that you did.

New Poster

As my niece continues her way through medical school, the rest of our book club is going to try and help out with the daily postings. No doubt she will be keeping an eagle out for what we write so not to worry on that front. I am a teacher so I'm going to be bringing some light to young adult literature. Look for me on Thursdays each week when I will introduce you to a genre that often goes unnoticed by adults. I will feature the book, Matched this week. I have high hopes that you will find my posts informative as you look to add books to your collection.

Hello Novel Discussion followers. Look for me, Linda, in future posts, as you'll be hearing from me once a week! I'm sure I won't be able to hold a candle to Kat, but I'll give it a try!
