This month, my Candace Bushnell trashy novel aside was all about inspiration!  But first, let's take out the trash before we get to the good stuff.  

Lordy, I need to stop reading Candace Bushnell.  I always look at her books the same way I do Emily Giffin, it's like taking a trip to the beach or the candy store.  Indulgent.  But, this book is like a new low, I honestly was embarrassed that I read it and found myself taking off the jacket only to put it back on because the book was a bright pink!  Everything about it screamed, "I'm a bimbo and I don't have a brain!"

Ugh. Gross.

Now... Brene and Ms. Gilbert!  Good, good stuff.  I liked listening to the audible versions of both of these books.  They were both read by the author and unabridged so I don't feel like I missed anything.  Also, it just felt like listening to a warm, gooey podcast for days on end.  Every trip in my car was delightful!  I felt like I was doing something good for myself just by tuning in.  Anyways, do it!  There is nothing better than going to yoga and the gym after work and then taking a peaceful ride home listening to these wonderful ladies!  Definitely a highlight of my September!
