This is where I take several different topics, because I
couldn’t think of ten for any one of them!
Books I’d love to re-read.
Once and Future King by TH White. I remember reading this one freshman year in
high school and absolutely loved it. It
started a King Arthur fetish for me for some time afterwards. I thought it was so wonderful, the lessons
learned by Arthur at the direction of Merlin.
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
I remember that this book was rather impactful for me at the time I read
it (tween years), but to be honest, I don’t remember the details of the story
too well.
Persuasion by Jane Austen.
I have already read this one at least three times, but want to re-read
it again, as I simply love the story of Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworth.
Emily and Einstein by Linda Francis Lee. I cried when I finished this book and sat
there and hugged it for about 15 minutes – my family was wondering what was
wrong with me. I want to re-read it to
see if it was as good as I thought it was.
Why I love Book Blogging
…because I find a ridiculous number of books I must possess,
but never get around to reading them, because there is a new one to grab and
read…
…because I love seeing what others think of the books I have
read, to see if I am totally off-base with how I thought of the book….
…because there are giveaways, and my book shelves are
burgeoning because of all of the wonderful books I have won…
Bookish Resolutions
To not buy any books for myself for the year of 2012 (unless
it is under $3.99)
To read some classics – I have got to start on that list…
right after I read all of those galleys I have grabbed….
Where I want to read
…on the beach, or by the beach so I can hear the roar of the
ocean in the background…
