schesarazade: Let's call this my bye week.

Let's call this my bye week.

I've been rereading some old books and some non-theme books, so I have nothing to share this week.

Unless you have an interest in potty-training. In that case, I highly recommend "Potty Train in Three Days" by Lois Kleint. Don't worry, I'll keep the details of its application to myself.

Coming next week: "The Uninvited" by Jonathan Daniel.

About Me

I read a lot -- whenever I manage to find time around life with my husband, two young children, a cat and my full-time job as a copy editor.

What does "Schesarazade" mean?

It's a play on the name Scheherazade, the fictional narrator of "1001 Arabian Nights." The sultan of Scheherazade's land marries a new virgin every day and has her executed the next morning. When Scheherazade is the sultan's bride, she forestalls her own execution by arranging to be right in the middle of a fascinating story. Intrigued, he spares her life for that day. They continue in that manner for the 1001 nights, at the end of which Scheherazade has won over the sultan.

So why Scheherazade? Well, she's intelligent, highly educated, courageous and a story-teller, to boot. My name is Sara, so - tada! -- you have Schesarazade.
