Oh my are my eyes blurry....too much reading, or reading too long?
The first book I want to write about is a new author to me and one I will be reading more of her works.
Kate Morton and The Forgotten Garden The book was a good read but one that was a little difficult to follow as she wrote about 3 different generations. Did not expect the ending! And that is always a good read. She has one other book The House at Riverton. Hopefully that will be as enjoyable as the first I read. Back to the library...
Phillippa Gregory The Lady of the Rivers Another new author and another very good book. I do enjoy reading about the court life in the times of early England and the War of the Roses in the 1400's. I am amazed and intrigued at life in those times. I always remind myself that I would have been one of the peasants or serving wenches, not one of the royalty. And in those times, not sure which life would have been the hardest.
Jill Marie Landis Summer Moon Once I got into this book, I realized I had already read it but didn't remember how it ended, so read it again. So guess it is a re-read, but won't be again. Unless I forget again that I have already read this twice now! lol This is an "escape" book.
I am also working on a workbook to help with my depression....

Oh Yes....Let me tell you...
Let me tell you about this book!
Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives by Dr. Laura Schlessinger
There are SO many things in this book...should be required reading for pre-teen/teenager females before
they start any relationship!! I kept writing pages down that I wanted to post a comment about...and then
I decided instead of writing the book again, I would just recommend this book to anyone who reads this blog.
Just a little view of what I mean...pg 6 second paragraph pg 7 When the French say pg9 Carol Tarvis Lord Byron pg 11 last paragraph pg 17 pg 21 second paragraph .....see what I mean? Just read the book for yourself,
it is a good one!!

Alotta Books Read
Have read quite a few books and haven't posted any...have to keep up or I will be repeating books again!
The Wedding Quilt Jennifer Chiaverini good book, easy read
Love Come to Me Lisa Kleypas a "no thinking" book...it was ok
Parenting the Office Davidhoffs....ummmm quite a few interesting perspectives on employee/employer relationships...as well as siblings...wanted to copy a few to give to our office manager. (I did refrain :)).
Never Be Lied to Again David Lieberman yeah right!
The Burning Soul John Connolly good book, I have read most of his...
The BEST!! The Hunger Games Catching Fire Mockingjay Suzanne Collins
OH MY GOODNESS!! These books were written for "youth" readers....wow! Really looking forward to the movies (hopefully the movie doesn't ruin the book (s)) Hope to go with my daughter to see the movie.. there are some aspects of the movie I dread ..(I am so bad about "visual" versus mental).
If you haven't read these books....what you waiting on?? Hard to put down...will re-read but not right away.
Got a Nook from my husband but haven't gotten into the reading on the reader yet...part of it is that I am "cheap" and haven't bought any books to read on it...so the "free" books that are offered and loaded are not
my choices. Guess I need to find a book I want to buy and try it then..
