Are you waiting?

-
Are you waiting for me to finally get myself back into things and start posting some more news, tidbits and so on about books? Where have I been? Did I lose the interest to read? Contrary to the obvious, I have been given a new book to read. Well? I know, I know. Here is my problem. I love to read - but I really love to read what I want to read. Believe it or not I want to read this book I received for a review but it is just taking my mind sometime to get over the fact that I did not personal drive down to the bookstore and buy it myself! Maybe it is more than that - perhaps it is also because this book is not fiction but fact and the title, in and of itself, makes me tear-up every time I think about it. Here is my plan...this weekend I will crack the cover! Next weekend I will write the review and you, dear reader in waiting, will have a new post on another book! Sound like a plan? (G00d, let's hope it works!).

At the top of my "to read later" pile...

I am not currently reviewing a book/author or even reading Christian fiction at the moment. It is an interesting break from the normal and I am enjoying selecting the titles right now. Since I rarely read in the secular market it is often difficult for me to find authors that are enjoyable or to my tastes. In May or perhaps early of this year I was lent a copy of Twilight by Stephanie Meyers . Wait! Hold on! If you are completely rolling your eyes at this point and believe that I have joined the teen band wagon let me get just a few words in edgewise here. Thank you. As I was saying, I was lent a copy of Twilight a while back. I had no real desire to read it because, as you, I had no desire to join the throng of teens and even pre-teens obsessing over this book/saga. The copy I had received was at the top of my "to read later" pile, so I picked it up and turned to page one. Please understand that I am not a fan of Vampires or even that sort of thriller market. I enjoy ...

Mind over Medicine

Great new book: Mind over Medicine! After a year long passionate, overwhelming diabolical with health, illness, food, Doctors and you name it I stumbled on Lissa's Ted Talk ! WOW.  I had to read Mind over Medicine. I had to learn this theory. Instead! I learned a whole lot about myself, happiness, loneliness, vulnerability, success, the spirit, and creativity. The whole health Carin just makes complete sense in my mind. In fact, as I listen to family and friends talk, I hear stories that relate to the Carin nearly daily. Understanding the Health Carin perspective is immensely valuable to generating the parasympathetic system's healing power. I have recommended Lissa's book to so many! When you find a great read you just have to share it . Everyone deserves to be Healthy! As you get ready for some great holiday time for extra reading, here is a great read to keep in mind: Mind over Medicine .  Enjoy!

Happy by Friday!

"Kids spell love: T-I-M-E (Leman, 2013)." The most profound statement I have read in a long time. Kids do not really want things - they want time. Let's face it time is the one item we do not have in abundance today. Instead we have jobs or careers, school, recreation activities, sports teams, lunch dates, social dates, dinner dates, birthday parties (oh the birthday parties!).  We are "hamsters running on wheels (Leman, 2013)." But time? Who has time? After reading Kevin Leman's (2013) new book: Have a Happy Family by Friday , I learned that I have time. In fact, I have all it takes to have a happy family by today! Leman will help you too. His steps are simple, heart-felt and trust me - you can do this. One word of warning, his book hits the heart and you will both laugh and cry. However, read this book this holiday season. Put down the novel or the latest biography and give the best gift of all to your family: Time!
