Book Club was this week. We read "The Glass Castle".
I had seen the author on a news talk show a few years ago and immediately recognized her story. However several of our bookclub members thought it was based on a fictional story. It's truly amazing how this woman overcame her neglectful upbringing and become a successful journalist. Our bible study group had a kick off luncheon this
week. We will begin our new study in October based on the book "Calm My Anxious Heart." I don't know if I feel more calm or anxious when I read that title. I bought this beautiful vintage pink book yesterday when I was out shopping for upholstery for our living room sofas. I love it. Please leave me a comment if you can recommend a good book for our bookclub. We are all supposed to come to our meetings with recommendations and I must admi
t that I'm lax on that responsibility. I read several books a month but not really books that would be good discussion topics. I love to read Christian based fiction, mysteries, books written by Southern authors and of course home decor and craft books. Being in a book club not only broadens my horizons but brings to attention great authors that I would not have known. Not to mention fun girls night outs.

Oh Cindy I LOVED this book. It's amazing what people can and do live through. Talk about realizing and acknowledging our blessings! I love to read but can't recommend anything as it has been awhile since I've read anything at all...
