My mom was a school librarian and I always remember her reading several books at a time.
I like to see what other people are reading and challenge myself to read books that expand my awareness. more »

  • My Remarkable Journey
    • Rated 0 stars

    Larry King is like Forest Gump- he was always in the place that was ‘hot’, or happened to be around people that were making news, or running into famous people, like the time he had a traffic accident with John F. Kennedy, before JFK became President .

    This was an interesting and Funny read and I felt honestly told story of Larry King. He was friends with Frank Sinatra and Jackie Gleason and led a fast life.

    In my opinion, I am surprised that Larry King does NO preparation for any interview – quite the opposite of Barbara Walter’s interviews.

    I listened to audio. I found it very interesting.

    While I did learn of the Civil War in HS history class –this story provides a different view, at least what I remember being taught of the Confederates and also the book provides details on how life was back then and how hard it was on everyone living in the South.

    This is Book #7, so how can you say anything bad about HP at this point, if you’ve read the previous 6 books!
    Bitter sweet finishing up the last book, JK closes up everything nicely.
    I enjoyed listening to the theatrical performances of all the books.

    What an amazing writer JK is!!!!

  • The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game
    • Rated 0 stars

    I picked up this audio book because I read other books by this author - Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood and Coach: Lessons on the Game of Life.

    Lewis tells a good story with added info on the game of FB making it simple enough for me a novice football watcher to understand.

    I found it all interesting the story of Michael Oher and a Mother’s determination to make a difference in one adolescent’s life.
