It is has been a very long time
since I talked about any books that I have read…
so I am going to share a bunch right now
to try to get caught up.

The Book of Longings: ♥♥♥♥
I love Sue Monk Kidd. Love.
This story did not disappoint
even though it is somewhat
religion based which is not always
my thing for whatever reason.
But I enjoyed this.

The Book Thief: ♥♥♥♥♥
This I loved.
In an all encompassing laugh out loud
cry ugly tears kind of way.

The Dictionary of Lost Words: ♥♥♥♥♥
I love words. Like….love words…
so this book was like magic.
Inspired by actual events,
it is so interesting to read about
how the dictionary came about…
with nuances as well as to how
women did or didn’t play a part in the
creation…

The Vanished Days: ♥♥♥♥♥
The note I wrote in my book list
after reading this was,
”I frigging loved this from start to finish.”
:)
And I did….it was vast and pretty and
gritty all at once and reminded me
of Diana Gabaldon’s books.
I would definitely read more of hers.

Magpie: ♥♥♥♥
This was a pretty good
fast pace summer read
full of twists and turns…
I enjoyed it

Stay tuned for next week
when I will share 5 more
and we get into my odd shift
into YA novels….heh.
Don’t judge me. :D
