Life is like the lovely charm bracelet I received for my 12th birthday...a strong chain, links made up of my family, my church, my faith, my friends. Attached to the links are charms significant to events or hobbies or milestones in my life. A charmed life is not always an easy life but always a memorable life. Like a charm, be significant, be strongly attached but also free to dangle, making gentle music with every step.

A Tiny Silver Book, #3
Upon seeing a Facebook post looking for book recommendations for summer reading, I posted the same and the recommendations came pouring in via Facebook, e-mail, phone calls, texts, etc.
I love to hear what other people are reading and while some might not appeal to me, I have gotten some of the best books this way! A friend who I only know through an online game ( yes, it was Mafia Wars) told me about "Same Kind of Different As Me", which I loved and have given to many people.
This week I have taken recommendations, gone through the list and here is what I will be reading in June.
Well, honestly, this list will most likely take me through July as I have a BIG celebration at the end of the month and will most likely be talking and laughing through mose of the trip!
A Week in Winter, Maeve Binchy...The Twelve Tribes of Hattie, Ayana Mathis...Death comes to Pemberly, P.D. James...The Fault in Our Stars, John Green...
Incendiary, Chris Cleave... Peace LIke a River, Leif Enger... Sisterland, Curtis Sittenfeld...The Silver Star, Jeannette Walls...Falling Together, Maria de los Santos... Reconstructing Amelia, Kimberly McCreight...The Interestings, Meg Wolitzer...Saving CeeCee Hunnicutt, Beth Hoffman.
I hope you all find something great to read this summer!!
