It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

http://bookjourney.wordpress.com

I finished Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck. I finished Breaking All The Rules by Rhonda McKnight. I finished Return to Love by Kathleen Shoop.

This is a courtest copy for review. This is from Beck Valley. The blog tour is listed at the top of the page.
Now I'm reading for KREGEL Candle Prayers for Kids by Claire Freedman. I am also reading Sister Betty Says I Do by Pat G'org Walker. Also, The Lady and the Unicorn by Tracy Chevalier.

I enjoyed Travels with Charley. It's a laid back style. I could feel the rain as it came down hard. I could see the Badlands. It's a book well worth reading.

Thanks for stopping by.

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. It is easy to pick up on the author, Catherine E. Mckinley's, fervent love for the color. One day my son asked me my favorite color. I said, "I don't have one." I don't. Perhaps, I choose colors by mood. Today red  and tomorrow green,

"The difference between life and death was information:..the greatest danger was not the river, but the desert beyond. There the temperatures were so hellish they melted stones, there was no water, and they could be preyed upon by scorpions, wildcats, and hungry real coyotes...Rattlesnakes, as well as coral, moccasin, and darting indigo snakes, came out to hunt at night, the time when the migrants set off, because the daytime heat was lethal." isabelallende
