Peanut Butter and Birthdays-A Dirty Combination

I just read another of Janet Evanovich’s books; she’s known for her quirky humor and her Stephanie Plum series.  Finishing The Grand Finale in two days, wasn’t really grand at all.  But I had to do it, because it was due back to the library, and because it was a quick read. 

As I’ve commented in a previous blog, I often feel a sense of shallowness in easy reading, but in Ms. Evanovich’s book I’ve found reassurance, or at the very least, an excuse.  I found at the very end of the novel the quote below:

"Romance novels are birthday cake and life is often peanut butter and jelly. I think everyone should have lots of delicious romance novels lying around for those times when the peanut butter of life gets stuck to the roof of your mouth."

Since it is my thirtieth birthday month, I intend to eat as much birthday cake as I can.  Thank you Janet!
