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!

A little late… just found your blog while Googling my new love- Dresden Plates! But William Kent Krueger is amazing. His series starts with Iron Lake. I bought his book on sale for 99¢ and it is better than any Dean Koontz or Stephen King book. If you try him, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Also if you want something short and funny read any of the Judith Viorst books as she traverses another decade of her life from “When did I Stop Being Twenty and Other Injustices” to ” I’m Too Young to be Seventy and Other Delusions”. Pick the one that’s age-appropriate for you.

I am currently getting caught up on Jennifer Chiaverini’s Elm Creek Quilt Series. There are currently 19 books in the series and I have about 5 more to complete before her next one comes out in October(?). I have read them in chronological order so that they blend one into the other with no gaps in story lines. I also love Amish Fiction and a variety of authors there.
