BOOKS!

I have never blogged about one of my passions and that is reading. The last two books that I have read have been wonderful and I thought I would share the Titles with you. If you haven't read these I would highly recommend them. This was Therese Fowlers first novel. I hate to give the story away but it is about leaving behind true love, a marriage of convenience, a teenager who is a good kid but has secrets, a profession that requires taking care of everyone else's needs, and health issues. This book makes you think about what matters in life. I can't wait until she writes more books. It also makes me want to write a journal which I kind of do here. But not really.
With all the news about the raid of the polygamist community this book has been mentioned hundreds of places. I couldn't believe the life girls in Polygamy have to endure. I always wondered how women could put up with the abuse and neglect in plural marriages. This book is a real eye opener as to the fact that this is the only life they have ever known or been taught. This should be on everyone's must read list.


I'm always looking for great books to read so if you have any suggestions. Please let me know. If you would like to borrow a book from my library, just let me know. All I ask is that they are returned. Oh and I have a thing about folding down the corners of the pages. It drives me crazy.
Also, if you would like to join Double Day book club let me know and I will send a card to you where you get I think it is 5 books for $.99 and also I can get 2 free books.
