Newest Jan Karon


I really enjoyed the Jan Karon "Mitford" series. Now she has started a "Father Tim" series. Home to Holly Springs is the first in this series. A truly "hard to put down" book that leaves you wanting more. I'm ready for the next installment about Father Tim.

Back on Blossom Street


My Zooba book selection for June has arrived and already been read!

It is the third in a collection of books written by Debbie Macomber about the happenings around a knitting shop. This book was an easy read, but had enough drama to keep you wanting to find out what was going to happen in the next chapter. It was a wonderful book to read and even had happy endings for everyone.

Red Hat Cookbook


Newest book from Zooba is the Red Hat Cookbook. It is huge! Over 500 pages of recipes. Haven't decided on which one to try first.


Rest of my reading is very slow. Can't seem to find the time right now and don't know why.

Not Much Reading

I haven't been reading much lately. I received a pattern book and yarn for a sweater I wanted to knit for my daughter that is in college. So all my free time has been spent knitting on the sweater. I took the Gabalon book back to the library. I started reading it and couldn't get into it. It probably needed more concentration than I was able to give. Outside of my study of Hebrews, I like to read mostly light fiction that I don't have to "think" much in order to read.

Books, Books, and More Books

I received a new book from Zooba.com, The Camel Club by David Baldacci. This book was written in 2005, the first in a series of books about members of this "Camel Club". The newest book offered from David Baldacci was the second in the series and I thought I would start with the beginning. I put the other book, The Collectors, on the list for the next shipment.

While at Books A Million looking at knitting magazines, I bought In An Instant by Lee and Bob Woodruff. It is the story of how they coped with the tragedy of Bob's traumatic brain injury.

I had a few books to donate to the library, so while I was there, I checked out Lord John and the Private Matter by Diana Gabaldon and More Twisted by Jeffery Deaver.

I'm reading the Woodruffs' book a little each day and will read the library books before the ones I own.

I'm still reading on Hitched by Carol Higgins Clark. Don't know if I can get much further. It is really just fluff and every other page I find myself thinking, "This is really dumb"! I will give it a few more chapters, maybe it will improve.
