My Favorite Recent Reads~

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn- Great story and I enjoyed getting a glimpse of what life was like in Brooklyn during this time period.
Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah- I really enjoyed the book, but thought it was a bit drawn out.
Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand- True story about POW. I learned a lot, but not my favorite read.
The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh...this was my beach read for book club. I loved this book. It had a captivating story intertwined with Victorian meaning of communication through flowers.
Mockingjay
Catching Fire
Hunger Games
Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert...Great summer read. I enjoyed the ' Pray' part of the book the most ...mainly for the information on meditation. I'm interested in learning more about intertwining Christian beliefs with transcendental meditation. I was intrigued by Gilbert's description of her meditation experience.
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dumant...Yes, another historical fiction book! I think I need a break from them. This book had a really interesting beginning and a pretty decent end. I didn't really get into it until the middle. I loved the personal story, but had no interest in the historical part.
The Shack by William Young...I read this over vacation & I'm still not sure how I feel about this book. The beginning was very upsetting to me and made me feel paranoid for days. The story has definitely left me thinking.
Stones from the River by Ursula Hegi...Athough I had to drag myself through the first 200 pages, it got MUCH better at the end. It was about the rise of Hitler and the impact of the times from a dwarf living in Germany....a very interesting perspective.
Three Cups of Tea by By Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin
Girl With the Pearl Earring by Tracey Chevalier
The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown
Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer...yes I loved these books :0) but the movies are horrible!!
Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
Drowning Ruth by Christina Schwarz
Water For Elephants by Sara Gruen
The Red Tent By Anita Diamant
