What Book Are You Reading?



Recommended Posts

I'm another one of those who "has issues" with books. The other day I mentioned to my DH that I had stopped in the used bookstore to waste some time. His immediate response was "where are they?" He knows me well :) I'll read just about anything...cereal boxes, phone books....

I just finished The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd and I'm currently reading The Rescuer by Dee Henderson. This is the last book in a series about six siblings who are all in public service type jobs...fireman, hostage negotiator, U.S. Marshal, etc. I'm waiting for the sixth Harry Potter book to come out in paperback this month.

Another thought for you paperbackers... Unless you HAVE to have the paper back... have you tried Amazon? Often you can find hardback books that are fairly new for paperback prices. I buy the used hardbacks often because i just can't wait for the paperbacks to come out.

Just finished Jonathon Kellerman's Rage, and Nora Robert's Blue Smoke. I read all of Kellermans, although I prefer the Alex Delaware series. Some of Nora Roberts I really like, others, I cannot ever get into. This one I liked. Today I started a book my Mom gave me. Actually she gave me 7 books by the same woman, Susan Wiggs, the one I started today is called Table for Five. I was planning to buy the new Janet Evanovich, but will read these first since I have started now. I love the Stephanie Plum series. There is a similar series, by another author with the last name of Strohmeyer...with a hairdresser/crime fighter/journalist named Bubbles. I also read all of Stephen White's. Too many books, and too little time,however if I would get off the computer......Enjoy your books!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
