It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

Hello!  Welcome to It’s Monday What Are You Reading?  The meme that we use to share what we read this past week and what our plans are for the upcoming week.  It’s a great way to see what others are reading and add to your own To Be Read list. :D  You never know where that next great read may come from!http://bookjourney.net


This meme does help me to stay organized. So, here I am again. I can write enough about Mercy's Rain. It's a great novel. It's by Cindy K. Sproles. The setting is Appalachia. I've had Quest For The Nail Prints by Don Furr for a while. It's really good too. Have read about three quarters. Have forgotten most of it. So, I'm starting from the beginning. Another book is A Glorious Dark by Swoboda.

I so agree with you that this meme helps keep us organised. I often go back to mine in the week following to see what I decided to read next!

This meme is a good idea! I find ones that I normally wouldn't ordinarily pick up :)

I also like how this meme helps keep me organized and on track. Even if I veer off the path, at least I had a good plan...LOL.

Thanks for sharing...Mercy's Rain looks good. And thanks for visiting my blog.

Catherine E. Mckinley had a deep desire to know about Indigo. It became her purpose.

"We watched the woman disappear into the bend of the road. It was unsettling. She seemed possessed, driven by some mimetic force. I was afraid that that force was also a part of me. 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. 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,

First Chapter First Paragraph

Not the welcome he'd been expecting after a mind-rumbling thirty-six-hour cross-country drive to the Oregon coast. And where was he supposed to stay for the next three weeks, until the place opened again?"

Are these the types of lives we are seeing and reading about in the news today?

"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
