Book Review "Rainwater"

I have to say I loved this book.
It was a quick read, and I loved the characters in this book.
The story was so sweet, even though it was a dark hard time.






















I think I need to look up some more writings from Sandra Brown...I don't think I have read any of her books before.























I like the friendship between the 2 main characters.






















I have to say I am proud that I had completed this book so early in the month and I am 1/3 way through my new book!

What are you reading?
I would love to know :)

The Midwife of Venice...A book Review.

Like last year one of my Goals was to read one book a month.
I only read 7...but that may have been 7 more than if I didn't have a goal :)
I am happy to share with you that I have completed my 1st book of the New Year!!!
321 pages to this book.






















But to be fair, I started reading this book before Ashley had Sawyer, but because of the content of this novel, I had to put it down.
I was only a few chapters into this book, but I couldn't read any further at that time.
It is about a Jewish midwife from 1575, who attends a noble woman...which at the time was forbidden.
I enjoyed this book and read it all today, so an easy read.
A bit predictable, but still a good read!
The back of the book






















I hope you have a creative day

Avid reader or obsessive book hoarder?

I am an avid reader....especially in the summer.
Recently I have joined a new book club on Facebook. 
In the middle of the month we vote on which book of 3 we would like to read. 
One book was ahead in the votes, so I thought I would get a jump on it and get it from the library. 
Only to find out that there are 10 people ahead of me on the waiting list. 
So I thought I would check out a book that Sharla recommended. 
That one also had a waiting list. 
Then I remembered I wanted to read "Still Alice"
Can you believe that one also had a waiting list. 
So one of the librarians brought me 3 books that she suggested I read. 
I didn't have my cheater glasses so I checked all 3 of them out. 

They also had a cart of books that they were giving away. 
I asked Kristy to see if there were any she  thought I would like....as I couldn't read the write ups. 
So she picked out 3 for me :). 

Kristy and I had a chuckle when I said I have many books at home I have bought over the years to read, lol. 
But a book lover can not have too many options ;) 

I started Fly Away on the drive to camp....so far so good. 

I hope you all had a creative Friday. 

Tracy. :)
