    Hello sarah,
    I finished The thirteeth Tale. You were correct it was very intresting. I did not suspect Magaret to be a conjoined twin but I did suspect triplets half way through the story. Adeiliene was very Horrible! I made note of the other books mentioned in the story to read. Now I must read Jane Eyre and Lady Audleys secret. Have you read them? Any advice is so on them?

    Sarah,
    I finally found the book Fever 1783 at my sons bookfair, I was excited since it was your shelf and Michelles. I thought it was very descriptive of the plague! Although having to put a vinergar clothes around your nose or to wash the sheets made my nose crinkle! LOL! I'll have to search for this months book.

    I should pretty much say "ditto!" I've thought a lot of those things...even felt them...and I'm ashamed to admit but I've seen my "ego" take hold and haven't liked that aspect of myself. I too am a long way from true enlightenment. I wander from it often too. I've read at least 10 other books since I started it ha! But it has opened my eyes to a lot of things.

    So what are you thinking about the New Earth book so far? I'm still reading it. I have to take time to really process what I've read then go back to it.

    Do you remember a book that we read for book club about a woman who was going to remarry and then her youngest son got caught with drugs and sent to jail. Then her fiance kept sending him all kinds of scripture references to read...he ended up changing his ways and accepting Christ. Then his dad came to his homecoming.... I think I might have been the one who chose the book but I can't remember the name of it. Hoping someone else from book club does. Thanks!

    Hi Sarah! You are quite an accomplished book reader; how cool! This is such a fun website and it's been fun to really look at all the books I've read. I was really surprised how many I have read and plan to read more this year. Your blog was really fun to read after Sunday's church being canceled, you are a great mom. Take care! Stacey

    So nice to see you here!! I have thought of you often on this site. I liked "The Eyre Affair," but I wouldn't say I loved it enough to be a huge fan. It was fun. It is really hard to classify it, but it is more fun if you are familiar with a lot of classic English Lit. There are tons of references. There is an element of mystery and almost sci-fi. As I said, kind of hard to classify. Definitely worth your time, though.

    I would love to borrow one. Probaby one of the ones that are your favorite. If I don't get over there by book club can you try to remember and bring one then? THanks a bunch. This is a fun site. I am getting lots of great ideas on books to read.

    Sarah,
    I am interested in the PG Woodhouse books. Do they need to be read in any certain order? What do you recommend?
