I need to either get a new prescription for my eyeglasses or a Kindle or both, but would love to be able to read all this good stuff.Springer Kneebloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02208420044446366675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-52591170762095848552009-06-07T05:56:30.500-07:002009-06-07T05:56:30.500-07:00Tami, I think it was your mom who recommended The ...Tami, I think it was your mom who recommended The Welsh Girl to me, actually.<br /><br />And Kathy R, clearly, that Tim O'Brien book is going to be next. Well, after I read everything on my shelf, and what the library is already holding for me...<br /><br />(Jacquie, it's free to request/hold a book here; isn't that grand?)<br /><br />EllieMe, You, or Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159195620327366257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-2565364346266063142009-06-06T17:26:37.462-07:002009-06-06T17:26:37.462-07:00Yes, Ellie, pretty, pretty please put me on the 15...Yes, Ellie, pretty, pretty please put me on the 15 books distribution list.<br /><br />And I am so happy to report that I got "The Middle Place" as a birthday gift today. That's next up, right after I finish "My Horizontal Life," which I am enjoying, thankyouverymuch, Jacquie :-)<br /><br />BethMe, You, or Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159195620327366257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-25632132965298979912009-06-06T16:48:00.915-07:002009-06-06T16:48:00.915-07:00Really liked Peace Like a River and the Welsh Girl...Really liked Peace Like a River and the Welsh Girl...thanks for the suggestions to add to my list.

Sparkling gems and utter crap in pretty equal measure.

(not that they are not all worth my time and energy)<br /><br />With that said, the last book I read happened to be one that I enjoyed so much, I bought and mailed it to several people. <br />The Middle Place by Kelly Corrigan. <br />I would prefer that no one else I know get a cancer diagnosis but Kelly gives a great voice to her experience. There was also a page that took my breath away and put into word the exact feelings I have carried with me about my mother's death. It's a rare find when someone's talent with words can offer validation for some unspoken feeling in your heart.<br /><br />Now I will pick from your helpful lists and add "reading a good book" to my summer 'to do' list!needs to read in Central PAnoreply@blogger.com
