My Book List...

I started trying to read again, its not something I enjoyed AT ALL. However the kids enjoy it and Erik loves it so much. So I decided to try again, well one of my friends Kathy talked about a book store that sold used books and had something for everyone there. So one afternoon Erik and the kids and I went there, its called the Book Barn and its a wonderful place to get books for cheap prices! I got some books for the kids, Erik was excited about finding books for himself. I want to read the "Left Behind Series". I had started but stopped, I asked where they would be and the lady told me that they had another shop that would have religious books there. Sure enough there is was and I was so excited to start reading that I finish to series in a matter of months. Maybe 3 months. The end of the series was harder to find...



Anyway since then I have many friends who have let me borrow different books and I hope to finish these in the weeks and months to come...
