Book List 2015 - A Classic Romance

There seems to be a fire under my butt - that or Audible is helping me with my reading list.  I finished the "A Memoir" and my only double dip "A book with a number in the title" 41: A Portrait Of My Father" in record time.  Well come to think of it the whole book unabridged is under 8 hours in the audible format.

Next book is under "A classic romance" 


When I was a teen - this book was turned into a TV show that I loved but I never read the book.  To tell you the truth I never considered it a "romance" in the traditional sense of the word but while doing research on Good Reads looking for the classic romance it came up in the list. 

I found it in Audible and it is 19 hours long which is perfect for me.  I love the long books because I can get lost in the story for a while while playing with my papers.  I also cook better if I am listening to a book. 

 I know that is strange but it works. 

I have to re-stock my card inventory so lets see how many I can get done while listening to Christy.

A Book by An Author With Your Initals

Book Club List: Sunday at Tiffany's


While Kaela was at her NYE 2015 party last night - the parents (us) made a fire in the hearth and sat down for a couple of good reads.  Mike was reviewing a "math paper" for his upcoming "nerd meeting" and I curled up with a very fast yet totally the book that pulls you in kind of read. 


I was having trouble coming up with a book whose author had my initials until one of the ladies in the group mentioned James Patterson.  I looked over on my end table and there was a James Patterson book just sitting there begging to be read.  My mother borrowed it from my mother in law so I thought "what the heck" and sat down.  I started the book at about 9:30pm and was finished by the stroke of midnight, just in time for my NYE kiss with the hubby. 

I am having the best time with this book challenge. 

Now I am off to fix dinner while listening to Christy on my iPod. 


Have a great night and stay safe.

2015 Pop Sugar Reading Challenge

I love to READ almost as much as I love to scrapbook so when I found this new reading challenge on facebook it intrigued me. 

It is not like most "book clubs" in the fact that it does not tell you what books to read what month but rather gives you a list of questions and you find your book based on those questions.

Found on popsugar.com

If you are interested in the facebook page here is the link:

I love real books, Kindle books and my Audible books!!!!

When I am scrapbooking / Cardmaking I love to listen to books so I do not think I will have a problem finishing this list in the 2015 timeframe.

If you are a avid reader or just enjoy the occasional good book this might be a neat little list to ponder.  

The first book I am starting with is:


For some strange reason I love presidential reads

Stay safe this NYE!
