Holiday Reading

I love the feel of a good book in my hand. When I was pregnant with Carson I was put on bedrest for what seemed like eternity, but was only 9 weeks. I say that lightly because it was a real time of rest for me mentally and physically. That summer 2007 I read 17 books all by Karen Kingsbury. Since Carson came 15 months ago, I haven't had one second to read again. This Christmas I began picking up books and I feel like myself again...well somewhat...I wanted to share some books I read this Holiday Season. I also love Christmas stories as well. I usually read Christmas stories by Donna VanLiere, but there wasn't a new one this Christmas. I picked up Blue Christmas by Mary Kay Andrews. It was a great start for my holiday reading. Next, I picked up Every Now and Then by Karen Kingsbury. It was the last book of the 9/11 series. Another great book. At the same time, I loaded Sunrise by Karen Kingsbury on my IPod and listened to that as well. I listened to that at night when I went to bed so I wouldn't wake everyone up with the light. Now, I'm reading From A Distance by Tamera Alexander at home and I'm starting Marley & Me at school during DEAR time. The kids love to see me reading a book too. I also read 2 chapters from a book by Beverly Lewis called Girls Only. It's going to be good too. I have so many books and such little time. I'm branching out and trying new authors too. Well, that's my Holiday reading season in a nutshell. I start back to work tomorrow. I have vowed to not stop reading though. We'll see how it goes. Any good books send them my way.
