I am participating in a most wonderful bookish Thanksgiving meme, #BookishThanks, put together by Monika at A Lovely Bookshelf on the Wall. This time I was able to place the graphic above for your convenience...my iPad was having a good day, I guess. For #BookishThanks, a category is given for every day in November, to which you can apply the book of your choice, posting it on your social media. It has been so much fun, I figured I'd post them on my blog weekly! Feel free to leave your choices for any categories in the comments.
8. Recommended by a friend - Stones From the River, Ursula Hegi
9. Would read over and over - The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald
10. Boosted my vocabulary - Anything Shakespeare

I have and read STONES FROM A RIVER, and will say it has one of the most unusual premises for a book. I think you'll like it! And what a great idea for the month of November- the Bookish Thanks list. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteOh yea, I read it in 1998 I think. I liked most all of Ursula Hegi's books. I'm loving this BookishThanks...it is brilliant!
Deleteohhh I need to check out the Jonathan Tropper book! and your dog is such a cutie :)
ReplyDeleteVery funny book, but I've yet to see the movie. And yes, my dog is the sweetest, most spoiled little lap dog ever! Lol.
DeleteI really loved your categories Favorite reading accessory and Favorite reading spot :)
ReplyDeleteI need to find a new spot though. I'm not old, but compared to when I was younger, I fall asleep much easier. So already being in bed just sets me up for a nap! Lol!
