I'm just gonna quick list off books I've read lately and what I thought of them.
Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson - This is a hard read. I'm slugging through because the black theme always intrigues me.
A Place Called Bliss by Ruth Glover - This was an easy read and enjoyable. It's the first book in a series called The Saskatchewan Saga and it's all about history in our little area. The one glaring fault is that the books are not well written.
Barefoot Contessa by Ina Garten - All the cookbooks girls. I've really enjoyed reading these. There are lots of good ideas, lots of beautiful pictures and lots of really good step by step instructions.
Silent Tears by Kay Bratt - I haven't read it yet but it's a true story of a Chinese orphanage.
The Elsie series - I hated. I couldn't even finish one book.
Peace Like A River by Lief Enger - Very well written. Very hard to put down. The story is hard though, thought provoking.
Wild At Heart by John Eldridge - I had to return it before I was done and I'd like to borrow it again. It's a slower read but good insight to understanding men - which I am in need of. Lol!
And these are all just in the last while. I'm a speed reader and I love to listen to books while I'm walking or on my way to town or even while I fold laundry.
What have you been reading?
I'm another speed reader. And I love your comments on each book. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI save Anne of Green Gables for the treadmill. Helps the minutes fly 😊
