I'm Taking a Break

I'm going to make my 2 family blogs private for a little while...I need to take a break from it for a bit....

Just wanted to let anyone who might read it, that I'm not shutting anyone out on purpose...just need to simplfy my distractions right now...

15 Books

Several weeks ago a few friends posted a list of 15 books that impacted their life for better or worse on Facebook...since I never post anything on my Facebook account, I decided to do it here. Anyway, the instructions were a list of fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you for better or for worse. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes...

Maybe I thought about it too much but here's my list

As a child/preteen:

1. Ramona series by Judy Blume
2. Little Women
3. Anne of Green Gables
4. The Box Car Children
5. Little House on the Praire

As a teenager/college student:

6. Native Son
7. To Kill a Mockingbird
8. The Diary of Anne Frank
9. Don Quixote
10. Les Miserables

As an adult (recently):

11. The Poisonwood Bible
12. The Secret Life of Bees
13. These is My Words
14. The Kite Runner
15. Midwives
