Favorite escapist reads

Let’s face it: Nursing can be one intense gig.

When I need to get my job out of my head, I try to find easy and light reads. Here are my picks for right now:

1) Does the noise in my head bother you? By Steven Tyler. I love the homage paid to schizophrenics in the title. And I love Aerosmith. Win Win.

2) Bossy pants by Tina Fey. Love her, love her comedy, and have been told by many I will love her book.

3) The Help by Kathryn Stockett. I know they are turning it into a movie but I want to read the book first. My mom loved it and has insisted that I read it as well. It looks great.

What are your “escapist” recommendations?
