Summer Book List
The books at the top of my priority list right now.
Ever since I was a small child, I have been an avid reader. At one point, I usually had anywhere from one to four books on the go at one time.
Since becoming a busy homemaker and self-employed entrepreneur, I have had less and less time to indulge in hours-long reading sessions, so most of my reading time is in bits and pieces—a few snippets of a magazine article while using the bathroom. “Mommy needs a break,” Jason tells the kids when I head in there.
I end up saving up my books-to-read until the blissful, lazy days of summer arrive and I can afford the time indulged in reading. This photo is of a few books I plan to go through this summer.
Of note:
Christ the Lord by Anne Rice
A Voice in the Wind by Francine Rivers
Persuasion by Jane Austen
The Stairway to Heaven by Zecharia Sitchin
Also on the list but not pictured:
Tess of the d’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen
The Missing Gospels by Bock
And perhaps I’ll re-read some old, long-ago favourites such as:
The Snow Queen by Joan D. Vinge
Braveheart by Randall Wallace
Pay It Forward by Catherine Ryan Hyde
The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo
I can hardly wait to immerse myself in words, words, words!
How am I going to do this with all the other things I also want to accomplish this summer?
Answer: One book at a time.
I am teaching two classes this upcoming weekend at our local scrapbooking retreat. One is about journaling, and one is called “Recycled Embellishments". I have just finished the class project demo layout for the Embellishment class, and am now displaying it for your viewing pleasure.
