I am married with two daughters 20 and 16. I have always enjoyed reading and I am always looking for a good book to read. Reading opens up the world and helps us to learn more about the world and ourselves. Reading is one of the greatest skills we are taught.

    Needless to say I'm impressed with Maya Angelou... I notice on your self that you also read religious literature... our new theme the next four years is based on Luke Acts and I did see a plan to read on Luke, maybe we can discuss that one

    I'm reading and journaling Maya Angelou's 40 day journey and those are some provoking questions... especially the first one

    how is the 40 day journey with Maya Angelou with you, did you find it enlighenting? or have you started to read it yet? I just got a copy and I'm interested in reading with a group maybe

    That's my problem too. Then, my mood changes and I start another stack. I just finished "Free Man of Color" by Barbara Hambly. It's a mystery, 1830's in New Orleans. Now, I have to get it up on my shelf. Sometimes I am just too lazy.

    Hi Bookaddict,

    I'm doing fine. I've been busy that's all. I bet you've read some good books lately. I will have to check out your shelf. I need to add some books to my shelf.

    Hi BookAddict,

    I haven't written in awhile. You have a lot of new books on your shelf. I would like to show only books I've read since the New Year. I don't know if that's possible. I'm still learning how to do different things on Shelfari.

    Yup, I've read some of the series. I would like to get back to it. I'm like you. I like something fun like this to read at times. With a mystery, it's got everything I want. Have a really good weekend.

    Hi BookAddict,

    I haven't written you in a long time. I hope you are getting some good reading done. I will have to relook at your shelf. I did buy the same book you have on your shelf. It's the one by Rita Mae Brown. I think it's a collection of cat stories. I haven't had time to start it yet. Have a wonderful week.

    I read it about 10 years ago and loved it. However Viktor Frankl was a psychiatrist, hence the last few chapters are dedicated to intense theoretical analysis. But don't let that ruin it for you. Take the best and leave the rest!

    How did you enjoy Man's Search for Meaning ... I found it to be life changing and hence have given the book many times as gifts.

    Hi Bookaddict214,

    My children are grown, and I have grandchildren. Yes, they do like to read. I am reading Agatha Christie, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles." It's really good.
