Are You Reading Anything?

Are you reading anything at the moment? I am impatiently waiting on my photography books to arrive, but until then, I came across a book I've had for years that I have never read...my sister gave it to me so long ago, but I don't think I was ready to read it then. It's called The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment. by Eckhart Tolle.

I believe my dh has that book and loved it!

As for me... I enjoy reading my eyelids, lol!!! Seriously if I could stay awake to read I would!

That's typically how I am, but it has been so long since I read a good book...I used to love reading! And I've gotten out of it. But I'm going to make some time too...I have only read a chapter so far in it, but it seems good.

I'm going to re-read Marly & Me! Now that we have a dog.......... Maybe try to get DH to read it too........

I just finished The Host by Stephanie Meyer, and loved it. Total SciFi just for fun read.

i just bought Ken Follett's follow up to the pillars of the earth...another 1000 pages. what was I thinking? but haven't had the energy to read it

this one class of mine i am teaching is draining me so maybe when that is over i will

I am reading the "Womens Murder Club Books" by James Patterson, I am on the 7th and have 2 more to go. They have been really good and fun books to read.

Ooh, I'm loving all these books...might have to try and get them when I am done with this one:)

I love to read and find that for me that is the only way to relax.

My DH grandma is a huge murder suspense reader and I end up with about
2 books a week here and I normally don't even pay attention who the book
is by or the name I just read it. It's horrible but I go through them pretty quickly.

I LOVE to read. Last books I finshed were The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. Third book in the trilogy comes out today (Mockingjay). Cannot WAIT to pick it up!!

I am on the waiting list for Mockingjay at the library. I would have never thought I would have liked these books, but I was hooked immediately!

If I don't read before I go to bed, I can't fall asleep. I just finished Sting's autobiography and before I start a new book I'm trying to catch up on a couple magazines.

I picked this up for my oldest DD today. Guess I need to read them she says they are awesome and rank right up there with the twilight books for her.

Okay, the book I was reading I finished last night!! I started it the night before and finished it last night...I must have been in the exact right place in my life to read this book, b/c it was mind-blowing. I would recommend reading it! It just makes you think of life in a way that maybe you would never even think of...and more than thinking it makes you feel. Because that is sort of a main message in it...how humans over use their MIND, and shouldn't think as much as they do. Sure, they should obviously use thier minds for the practical things that they need to each day, but they should find stillness and silence within themselves and be in that exact moment and it is there that you will find the Being and it is within you. I cannot explain it but I would recommend it!

I just started reading Cut Cro Die....a murder mystery based around a crop. LOL

I'm reading The Pirate Hunter by Tom Morrissey. It's good.

I've heard wonderful things about this book. I'd love to read it. I'll have to put it on hold at the library. Thanks!

The best book I read this summer was The Help by Kathryn Stockett....LOVED it! I also read Saving CeeCee Honeycutt. It was a cute fun book too!

Keep the reading suggestions going. I love reading and I'm always looking for a good book.

I LOVED The Help, I was sad when it I was finished with it. I'm currently reading The Fixer Upper by Mary Kay Andrews. It's a fun, lighthearted read.

I have the book A New Earth, Awakening to Your Life's Purpose by Eckhart Tolle. After reading how much you liked The Power of Now, I'm inspired to read this one finally!

I also read The Help and loved it, fabulous book!

Lori, let me know how that one is..I saw that and I really want to read it!!
