I have resisted the kindle although I like the idea of immediate gratification, but nothing replaces curling up with a good book, plus I read tooooo much online as it is.
Here is the stack next to my bed that I will be curling up with as soon as possible:
- Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert - I am about halfway through on a second read since the book has had a resurgence with the new movie out. I love it ... it is real, raw and funny and a wonderful peek into Elizabeth's very cool travels.
- Water Signs by Daria DiGiovanni - this book is by one of my Parasol Partners that I adore! Daria is ridiculously talented with a beautiful romantic heart and I am diving in! "Water Signs is an odyssey of heartbreak, personal growth and spiritual development that leads them full-circle to a Divinely guided conclusion." Yup - sounds perfect! Daria also has a great blog to check out with writer hints and peeks into the pages of Water Signs!
- Harlot's Sauce by Patricia Volonakis Davis - I had the pleasure of being part of the blogging community with Patricia as Harlot's Sauce was being born. My copy is winging its way through UPS as we speak and I cannot wait. Patricia is one of my favorite people and I can assure ... Harlot's Sauce will tickle your fancy! "With vivid descriptions of life in beautiful, modern-day Greece, this memoir is both a tasty treat and an exhilarating sail on the Hellenic seas through xenophobia, dysfunctional family units, religious ravings, obsessive protocols, political disorder, European football, and fabulous food."
- Stop Walking on Eggshells by Paul T. Mason & Randi Kreger - I am recovering from my marital state. Still. ARG. Recently, in a long outpouring of relationship sagas in the wee hours of the morning, a friend recommended this book after hearing about some of my experiences. All I can say is ... wow ... I wish I had this two years ago. And I would also like to say: SEE, I WAS NOT THE CRAZY ONE! but that would be childish. wouldn't it?
What is on your Reading List?
Right now I'm reading "Firefly Lane" by Kristin Hannah. Really loving it. I'm currently a member of two book clubs and I'm always looking for new books to read. I have a list of my favorite books on my blog http://thistalkaintcheap.com

ReplyDeleteI have been reading quite a bit lately myself. I just finished reading "A Bride in the Bargain" by Deeanne Gist. Another book by her I really enjoyed is "Maid to Match". Siri Mitchell is another Author I really like. Her two books "Loves Pursuit" and "A constant Heart" are two good ones. I am just getting ready to start "She walks in Beauty". Also by Siri Mitchell
ReplyDeleteThanks Ladies! This is great - now I have more to add to my Amazon wishlist LOL
ReplyDeleteI have just started Food, Love and God...and I just finished Lover Revealed...kind of a vampire/romance book series. I need book 5 so will be heading to Borders next week.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for coming by #beanchat today. Loved that I could meet you and check out your blog...new follower here girl!
Right now I am reading Three Cups of Tea for my book club. So far I am enjoying it...hoping to get a nice chunk of time to read this weekend:) I have read Eat, Pray, Love and enjoyed it...want to catch the movie now. Harlots Sauce looks good (I have been to Greece long ago and loved it), I think that I will pick that one up. Thanks!
