Monday List!

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. The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
2. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
3. The Prophet by Khalil Gibran
4. Nicholas and Alexandra by Robert Massie
5. An Incomplete Education by Judy Jones

An Incomplete Education

A good day, for me, is one in which I learn something new. “An Incomplete Education: 3,684 Things You Should Have Learned But Probably Didn’t” by Judy Jones contains an amazing amount of information. I enjoyed reading a segment each day over several months and then adding certain subjects to my reading list for further study. You can always skip the subjects that you find super boring, too!
