this week...


...has been full of r&r...running and reading. I have never been much of a reader. But over the last year I have really stumbled across some great books. This past week this book The Help has been glued to my hands...it was so good you gotta read it. Anyone have any suggestions for me to move onto next?

"The secret life of bees" by Sue Monk Kidd is a fun read set in the same time period as "The Help". I've really enjoyed "3 cups of Tea" and the follow on to it that was recently released "Stones into Schools". I haven't read "The Help" yet but it's on my list.

I've enjoyed the two "Ladybug Farm" books. The first one is "A Year on Ladybug Farm" and the second one is "At Home on Ladybug Farm" by Donna Bell. I've heard that "The Help" is good--I've got it on hold at the Library.

I LOVED The Help.
I recently read Jodi Piccoult's House Rules and that was good.
Some faves of mine are The Time Traveler's Wife and The Art of Racing in the Rain. I'm a crazy avid reader and I always have a book in my hand and 50 on the shelf to be read. OH The Namesake was really good too.
