I enjoy reading memoirs and biographies as well as contemporary and classic fiction. I'm newly married, to a soldier in the Army, and we've just moved to Germany. I have two cats, and no children.

    Look at this book and tell me if you think you would like it. When I read about it, I thought of you. Am I right? "Between Shades of Gray" by Ruta Sepetys.

    So... that didn't work. They switched the "less than" symbol to a bracket for some reason? Oh well. It's supposed to say, "I heart you!"

    I'm so happy to hear from you! I wasn't sure if you were still in GA, or back home, or over to Germany by now... so if I happen to have things to mail to you, where shall I send them? :)

    The Ancient One says

    My soul counseled me and taught me to see beauty veiled by form and color.
    My soul charged me to gaze steadfastly upon all that is deemed ugly until it appears lovely
    Before my soul had thus charged and counseled me, I had seemed to see beauty like unto wavering torches between pillars of smoke;
    But now the smoke has dispersed and vanished and I see naught but the burning.
    My soul counseled me and charged me to listen for voices that rise neither from the tongue nor the throat.
    Before that day I heard but dully, and naught save clamor and loud cries came to my ears;
    But now I have learned to listen to silence,
    To hear its choirs singing the songs of ages,
    Chanting the hymns of space, and disclosing the secrets of eternity.

    - by Kahlil Gibran

    I checked out the shelf and these look great. Did you read anything by Nicholas Sparks? How about Bend in the Road? Check that out. If you want a good Fiction Thriller, check out Battlefield Earth. I just finished and my god, what an action packed, seriously intense story!
