Share your “reads” with me
Two of my favorite past-times: Looking through magazines or reading a good book. It’s what I do every evening to unwind from the day. I’m getting desperate for more books to read so if you’ve read a good book share it! Mysteries are my favorite but I’m open to any good book. I love a series so I can read on when I’m done with one book. I’m reading Lisa Gardener’s book called Catch Me. I’ve read almost all of James Paterson and the whole Stephanie Plum series from Janet Evanovich. I know there must be book lovers out there reading away and enjoy books I haven’t read. Help! (Yes, I read The Help LOL.)
One of my favorite magazines, Jeanne d’ Arc Living just arrived at our door! It’s such an expensive magazine that I normally only order special issues, but this month Jeanne d’ Arc surprised us all and reduced the cost of the magazine in the US to $13.95 per issue. This is about half of what it’s sold for in the past so I’ve added a few copies to our website . Jeanne d’ Arc is published in Norway and it’s a treat to find it in the US. Enjoy the photos (taken by the Jeanne d’Arc photographer…not me) as a sampling of what’s inside this beautiful magazine.
I can’t wait to hear about what you’re reading…I’ll keep a list so email me or leave a comment. Have a great day everyone!

I love all of Luanne Rice’s novels. Usually are set in the northeast near the ocean and revolve around
family and the sea. For a fun read the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella is good one. If you love
social issues and a real page turner Jodi Picoult is an interesting choice.

Oh, Anne, this is just the best thing! I’m leaving in a couple of weeks for a trip back east, and behind-the-times person I am, do not yet have a Kindle. I’ve caught up on all the books I was currently reading and needing something new. Oh, boy, I have lots of choices now. I have not read a lot of the books suggested and just can’t wait to dig into some of these mystery series. I am not a Stephen King fan, normally, but I just finished 11/23/63. That is the most intriguing and engrossing book I’ve read in a long time — it’s really like taking a trip back to the 60’s. I would HIGHLY recommend that book! Thank you everybody for these great suggestions!

The “Prey” series by John Sandford is really good. If you are reading Catch Me( I had a hard time getting past the start) you also might enjoy the authors Harlan Coben and David Baldacci.
