Twenty Seven

Like I've said before, I get to read more when it's sunny out. I can't chase the kids, so they just have to play nicely. And when I'm not snapping millions of pictures of them, I read.

So here's 27. Katt's reading a mystery, made me crave one too. Found this one and decided to give it a try. Plus, once Tink eventually arrives, I probably won't get to read much for a while. Gotta do it while I can!!

Book 26. What was funniest about reading this book today was, as we were sitting outside having dinner, Davey was having hysterics at something Andrew was doing. Dave came out on to the deck upstairs and admonished us, "don't you know we have rules against having fun around here. No fun having." and turned to go back in. Hmnnnn this book really is applicable today...

Just finished reading Six Big, Big, Big Angels. It's about a little girl who fell of the top of the slide at her grandparent's pool on to the concrete patio below. The book was written by her grandmother and relates the girl's experiences when she was taken up to heaven (in between falling and hitting the patio) and subsequent visits to heaven.

Really hard to suspend disbelief at first (being a skeptical person). But wow. She was three or four at the time and describes so many things she couldn't have known in great detail.

As I mentioned before, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Possibly because I also enjoyed the movie and was able to apply some of Russel Crowe's character to Jack Aubrey. But it was well written and interesting, and I'm pleased that there are 19 other books in this series which I will endeavour to read over the next few years.

(oh, and that makes 24).

In case you can't read that teeny tiny book cover, the book is called "Eat to Live" and is by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. You can read more about him on his site.

Needed something fluffy to read this afternoon. This fit the bill.

After a looooooonnnnnnnng dry spell, I finally picked up a book again. Yah, another alien one. I just read what's in the house. But it was good. Totally reminded me of Michael Crichton, but with so many twists and turns and loops....it'll keep you guessin' fer sure.
