I just finished the book
'Wild' by Cheryl Strayed. A bio about her struggles and how she overcame them on a hike through the Pacific Crest Trail. I saw that Reese Witherspoon starred in a movie about that so I definately want to see it soon. It's on one of my streaming services so it won't be difficult to find.
For quite awhile now, as I read first this book and then that, I noticed that I run across passages that I just want to read over and over....so I started jotting them down in a notebook. I'll pick up that notebook and read it over again and again. Some of the quotes are by me. I do have some deep thoughts every once in awhile. 😀
I also recently finished
'Lessons in Chemistry' which our little book club chose as a read.
Now, I don't know what I want to read next. Anyone with any suggestions?
That looks like a great read!
ReplyDeleteHave you read any Anne Perry books? She has a few series. The one I like best is the Thomas Pitt and Charlotte series. Mysteries set in London during the Victorian era. I love all of them!!!
ReplyDeleteIf you want another memoir try The Salt Path by Raynor Winn. I enjoyed Lessons in Chemistry!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Happyone! I've read and own all of Anne Perry's books! Started collecting first editions back in 1990. Love Thomas & Charlotte Pitt series...

Thank you for the book review Latane. It sounds like a very interesting one. I am reading the latest Louise Penny book, A World of Curiosities.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about passages that you want to remember. I like keeping various journals and keep one for exactly that purpose. I read Wild a couple of years ago and I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading mysteries lately and love them. I like Metzger's Dog by Thomas Perry. It's quirky and fun. I loved Wild!
ReplyDeleteI haven’t read either of these books you mentioned, Latane. My favorite book types are historical fiction and mystery. I finished the Mitford Affair recently and can recommend it.
