I'm searching for some new books to begin reading. I love reading to relax my mind after an intense day of work. I enjoy books that are not too serious, but interesting, enlightening, fun, happy, sad, romantic, silly, religious, and something I can relate to. If you read this post and have a book to recommend please leave me a note with the name and/or author. I look forward to finding some new books, Thanks!

Hey Nic! Have you read the twilight series by stephanie meyer? They are so good!! I also love anything by Jodi Picoult too she is amazing. Mary Higgins Clark is a great mystery author too. Hmm Sydney Sheldon too - not perfectly clean though.
ReplyDeleteYes I love to read!!!
nic you should get on goodreads! and read that british teen series i was telling you about. here's the first one.
ReplyDeleteI love historical fiction. Give these 2 series a go:
ReplyDeleteThe first being an easy read, though there are a TON of volumes. They are the Children of the Promise books by Dean Hughes. The first novel is called Rumors of War. Very easy, but well done World War II books.
The other is a series by Sharon Kay Penman set in 13th century England. First book is called Here Be Dragons. This one is a harder read, but very good. Sharon Kay Penman is an amazing historical fiction author.
Have fun!
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls is really good. It is a true story, a really easy read, and you'll be counting your blessings for the life you've lived after reading it.
ReplyDeleteI also love the book The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. I recommend it to anyone who wants a good book to read. You will learn a lot about yourself and everyone around you (especially Tim)...Even Mike read it and got hooked!
Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom another true story about a guy who spent his Tuesday afternoons with an ill elderly friend.
One Tattered Angel by Blaine M
Yorgeson-another true story about a family who adopts a baby with hydrocephaly.
Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech-coming of age book.
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd-another coming of age book.
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is a good childrens lit book (so is Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis and Holes by Louis Sachar)
of course, the Twilight series is great and really popular right now.
On my list to read soon is... The Kite Runner
The DaVinci Code
Hope you find some good ones to recommend to us when you finish-I'm always looking for good books to read too.
I love Brit Chick Lit - it is so fun and light hearted. I love anything By Jane Green (Jemima J, Bookends, Swaping lives, Straight Talking, Mr. MayBe) and all the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella (These are so true amd so funny!)
ReplyDeleteGirls, thank you for all the good book reads! I have so many to choose from.
ReplyDeleteTara- I have read S. Meyers books.
Jo- I tried checking that series out at the library but they dont have it... looks like I will have to find it on Amazon.
Shelby- I want to read that love language book, sounds so insightful.
Cara- The shopaholic series crack me up.
If any of you are looking for a few good reads check out all the books by Nicholas Sparks.
YA goodreads is awesome, I am a member of it, plus you can link friends and get their book recomendations too.
ReplyDeleteBobby and I have tons of books if you want to borrow. ;0) Plus I want to see your new place!
