I’ve been tagged by Linda Fay at Higher Up and Further In. It’s a book tag and I am to list the books that I am currently reading. Until I wrote this out I don’t think that I realized how many books I could be reading all at the same time!
- Loves Enduring Promise by Janette Oke – just about finished with this one … my husband’s grandmother has the entire “Love Comes Softly” series and I’ve been reading them during my down time – I’ve found them to be a nice way to relax
… and I find myself thinking in the characters’ pioneer english too! Iffen yed like ta read tha rest a my list …
- Irresistable Revolution by Shane Claiborne – Just picked this up from the library last night, but my husband snatched it from me … I’ve heard good things about this book and am eager to read it through
- The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck – I’ve decided to read through all the classics, so I am starting my literary project with this one
- Your First Quilt Book (or it should be!) by Carol Doak- Just arrived this week from eBay and I’m enjoying it – looks like a good instruction book for the beginning quilter, me!
- The Charlotte Mason Companion by Karen Andreola – slowly reading through this again and soaking up her thoughts
- All About Quilting From A to Z – seems like a good reference book on quilting
- Good and Angry by Scott Turansky & Joanne Miller – very practical, when-the-rubber-meets-the-road parenting book that I highly recommend! I heard them at our homeschool conference a couple of weeks ago and they are quite good
- Quilting by Janet Wickell – so, apparently I am wanting to learn to quilt
- Gardening for Dummies – yes, a “for Dummies book”, but that’s how I feel when it comes to gardening
I’m doing as much reading as I can right now about gardening (mainly my public extension service publications) and quilting (I found 2 neat blogs – Happy Things and Angry Chicken). These are my two pursuits right now.
Reading aloud to my dear daughter:
- Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling – she is really enjoying this!
- Felicity’s Surprise (American Girl) – she received the Felicity doll for her birthday and now she is wanting me to read all her books
… next year we’ll be studying the American Revolution, to this is a good little into … - Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie
- Seabird by Holling C Holling
Okay, so now I will tag … Candace, Presley Family (Christi) and Angela
