Reading update

Since my last post I have been still be reading. I have several new books to my list. A few of them were really really good. The first one I read was Going Gray: What I Learned About Beauty, Sex, Work, Motherhood, Authenticity, and Everything Else That Really Matters. I am not going gray no where close, but I thought this was going to be a comical take on getting older...that I am doing and it wasn't. It was alright I guess. It was more about a lady who was going through the above but it was more of a serious take. If you are going gray, you may find it interesting.

The next book I read was: Dark Pursuit bu Bradilyn Collins. I great book I thought. A murder mystery. I found it attention grabbing right away and could not put it down. I would highly recommend it.

The last one I read was: The Shunning (The Heritage of Lancaster County #1). This book is part of a series. I only read book one of the series and I really really liked it. It is about a Amish woman who feels like she is trapped in an English body. I can't wait to read the other books in the series. I always find the Amish sort of interesting and this book gives you a true interpretation of things go down in Amish country.

All of the above books I read on my Kindle and were free dowlaods. WooHoo I love me some free stuff. I will post the links on my side bar for the books I read, but it is a beautiful day here today and I need to go let my boys run off some more energy. So until then...happy reading...

Woops

Once again, my blog which I want to keep up on my book challenge with has fell once again to the waste side. I can not apologize for being a mom. I love my boys!! So today I am going to post on my current book status.....
I have read the following books: (the links to the books will be in my sidebar)

Vanish by Tom Pawlik-Interesting book. It was not all what I thought in the end. The book as a whole was just ok.

Serial by Jack Kilborn and Blacke Crouch-This book was ok as well. I read it in January and to be honest I can not remember a lot about it so it did not leave that good of an impression.

Snowbound by Janice Kay Johnson-this book was a pretty quick read and it was a cute love story. All of us deserve to be loved and can find love, even when you are not looking for it.

Run for Your Life by James Patterson- I am a huge Jim fan as I like to call him. He did not let me down another great one by Jim. I really enjoy this story line with the police man.

Mossy Creek by Deborah Smith-I did not like this book. It had great reviews and there are multiple sequels. It just was not my cup of tee.

Irresistible Forces by Brenda Jackson- If you are looking for a steamy romance story this book is for you. WOW! is all I can stay. Let's just say that was one lucky girl ;)

The Hunters by Jason Pinter- Another just ok book. It was a little odd but it help my attention.

Hide in Plain Sight by Marta Perry-This book was pretty good. It was a quick read once again. It was a suspense/love story. I did enjoy it.

Gypsy Legacy:The Marquis by Denise Patrick- This book was set centuries ago and I really enjoyed the language and the courtship that was evolved back then. It was a cute love story.

Already Dead:a Novel by Charlie Houston- Not my favorite vampire book by far. I just wanted to hurry up and get over with it so I could see how it ended.

These are the books I have read so far. All of the books I have read were read on my handy dandy Kindle. I love my Kindle and all the books I read were free Kindle downloads with the exception of the James Patterson book. While I did not enjoy all the books greatly I still liked readying different genres that I may not have read otherwise. Happy Reading!!
