May Reads

Well, May was full of baseball, rain, snow, and more baseball. I still managed to read a little something.

1. The Pioneer Woman Cooks. I am completely HOOKED! I love it. I love the stories, the photographs, and obviously the food.
2. Blue Shoes and Happiness by Alexander McCall Smith. the next book in the series...yes I am going to finish the whole series. These books make me smile
3. No I did not even begin #2 of Hunger Games like I said I would. I was relieved when Pilar wanted to borrow it. I had borrowed it and could not start...the thought of the first disturbing book was too much. I thought I would throw you off by listing something I didn't read:)
4. Jane Eyre I read this awhile ago and didn't get a chance to read it again before book club...However, the BBC movie version of this is amazing! If you know the movie line "sink me" you will absolutely enjoy this movie!
5. Landscape with Roses by Jeff Cox. Gorgeous. I dream about having roses in my landscape. I dream of having a landscape where roses could go. I do have 4 roses now, but now have about 4 I am planning for in the future.
6. 1 year to an organized life by Regina Leeds. I laugh as I write this thinking that I just might be able to do it in a year. Maybe. Check back next May. This book is brilliant!
7. In trying time, just keep trying by Merrillee Boyack. I think she is a great writer. This one is different in that it is so personal. She found out she had breast cancer in a later stage...read it. Other titles I enjoyed: The parenting breakthrough, Toss the guilt feel the joy, 52 weeks of service, and Strangling your husband in Not an option.

Well, on into June. I have 6 cookbooks checked out. The summer weather has arrived and I feel like cooking. Happy Reading!
