Monday Recommendations



Monday Recommendation List

Random list of 10 books Monday! I have read and enjoyed each of these enough to flag for a potential personal library purchase.

Be bold and just choose randomly, stick to your normal genre...or step outside of your normal
reading zone and try something you usually wouldn’t. You can look up the descriptions at Amazon.com, or search my blog for old posts by entering the title in the little search box in the top left-hand corner and clicking the magnifying glass.

This week-- 10 recommendations (in no particular order):

  1. A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
  2. Candide by Voltaire
  3. The Autobiography of Malcolm X  by Alex Haley
  4. Talking to Heaven by James Van Praagh
  5. Raising Freethinkers by Dale McGowan
  6. Life Laughs by Jenny McCarthy
  7. Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn
  8. Laird of the Mist by Paula Quinn
  9. Then Came You by Lisa Kleypas
