I am in love with my kindle. I am obsessed with it and recently a wonderful has happened. I have figured out how to check out books from the library...aaaamazing! I just sit on our couch at home in my pj's checking out books. I am in love with my kindle...have I said that already?!
So the books I have been reading:
The Secret Keeper
I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others. I was not expecting the ending at all. It was a total surprise which I liked that. I want to read it all over again now knowing the ending. It was an easy read and kept my attention. It was also set in England...which is always a bonus for me. Speaking on England- can you believe the final Downton Abbey?! Why? Why?
The Language of Flowers
This book was an easy read. I actually bought it (Amazon- you have made it so easy! My Dave Ramsey budget does not like you!) and enjoyed it. It was about a girl in the foster care system. It makes you think about loving broken children and what the foster care system does. The book was interesting and I liked how the author brought in the concept of flowers. It made me want to learn more about gardening and the language of flowers. I would recommend it!
The Light Between Oceans
I love this book and might just read it again. I also bought this one. It was amazing, in a powerful way. It is not a happy book. It is more a book about life, the decisions you make, and how they effect others. I was bawling at the end of it. I love reading experiences that move you to deep thoughts and discussions, that make your heart appreciate life and loved ones. I would recommend this to everyone! So good!
The Winter Sea
This was an ok book. I could not get into it for some reason. There was too much background knowledge but I did like the story. If you want lots of history and a romance story you would like this one. I did check this one out from the library so I felt rushed with finishing it on the due date before it magically disappeared from my kindle. That could of aided in my negative feelings towards this book.
The Shoemaker's Wife
I just bought this...it was only $2.99 (and now all my kindle Christmas money is gone...SAD DAY!) It is set in the Alps and I have enjoyed it thus far. I have high hopes for it and will keep you posted.
That is what I have been reading. What have you been reading?
I plan to read more over Spring Break. I will be camping with my family and have a long appointment with my kindle and a comfortable lawn chair. Oh kindle love!
Happy March Everyone!
(Thank goodness February is over...it was a dreary month!)
I love my Kindle too! I just finished The Rose Garden. I enjoyed it and plan to try another Susanna Kearsley book. Love your reviews. I want to read all of these. Downton was heartbreaking. I couldn't watch the whole tragedy. I closed my eyes when I realized what was about to happen.
