I like to read.....I often have many books sitting around my desk on my list of books to read. A friend of mines husband told me that every January, she makes a list of books she is going to read for the upcoming year.
I thought I would try something similar here (of course it will require my daughters help to figure out how to cross off the ones I finish.) I will not be doing book reviews....I might make an occasional comment on the books but reviews just arent my thing.
Since I have started this on a whim, I will be adding more books to it as I find all the details (aka exact name and/or author)...I might even let you know, if I just couldnt finish the book.
Should you choose to read any of these books and wish to perhaps purchase them thru amazon.com.....do me a favor, and go to www.caheartconnection.org and click on the amazon link before you make your purchase.
