It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

http://bookjourney.wordpress.com

I have about one chapter left in Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck. I have really enjoyed their travels. This week I need to not fool around. I want to finish up Breaking All The Rules by Rhonda McKnight. I also need to finish The Devil Riding by Valerie Wilson Wesley. It's for Animal Book Challenge hosted by Socrates Book Reviews.

I was also a worshiper, set wandering in an unfamiliar land."   It seems this week I have been driven to write about my mother. It has happened more than once. Here she is again. Tapping my shoulder a reminder that she loved blue. There is the one and only photo of her where she wears a dress of blue. The photo was taken years and years ago. In the photo are my two nephews, my mother and myself.. The photo was taken in West Philadelphia. She sewed it. A light blue that now I wish to call "Indigo." I have much to learn about Indigo.
