I’m reading a couple of books (always, a couple of books, it seems) I’m enjoying (The Artful Edit and Claire Davis‘ Labors of the Heart), but when I’m not deep into a book, I feel … restless.

I came across Marisa de Los Santos’ Love Walked In at my local Barnes & Noble. I wrote down the title and contacted the publicity department. I wanted to talk to Santos on my show. This week I’ve been restless without a book I’m crazy about and today her book arrived (she’s on the show next month). And now that I have a book I feel I may love, I feel more relaxed.

Do you go through this, too? Without a book you’re mad about, you feel at loose ends?
