Books

JUST FINISHED: Dracula by Bram Stoker. Quite an engaging read and still deliciously scary (it was written in 1923). I was working out on the elliptical and reading to keep my mind off my aching body when someone passed through my peripheral vision. I actually jumped. I'd recommend this book and plan to read it again someday.

CURRENTLY READING: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. Also, very engaging. Can't wait to get back to it.

READING TO JACOB & CHARLOTTE: Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. We're sucked in . . .

READING TO LAUREL & MARY: Junie B. Jones series. Not as engaging for me, but still fun because I am spending time with my girls.

WANT TO READ NEXT: 1776 by David McCullough. I am inspired by the amazing family home evening lesson Charlotte & her Dad gave last night. What a great country we live in - I want to review it's history by reading this highly recommended book.

DAILY READ: Book of Mormon and Bible. Makes a total difference in my day - combined with meditation and prayer, unbelievable!

FAVORITE READS: A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens; The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch; Harry Potter Series (read to my kids); The Percy Jackson Series (read to my kids)

FAVORITE BOOK CANDY: Twilight Series
