I have no issue fitting books into my life but I do feel like I am often unintentional with what I choose to read. I discovered this nifty challenge over at BloggingMolly. The making of this list, forced me to really look at all the books we own. I came up short in the poetry category. I am taking suggestions!

I couldn't find your email address to invite you to the 888 blog?
ReplyDeleteYour lists look great, btw.
Great list! I didn't realize L'Engle had so many I hadn't heard of. No poetry suggestions from me...my library is weak there, too.
ReplyDeleteGood list. Although one question I want to know is-- when does a woman of six children find time to read, ever. I have three and it is struggle. I need to know your secrets. I will say you are truly an amazing woman.
ReplyDeleteHi Eva,
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list of books.....one of my favorite is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.....the characters are vivid personalities.....
I just finished reading......90 minutes in Heaven by Don Piper.....it is interesting....but I have my doubts....take care, Lisa Hoffman Davidson
