5/12- And Then There Were None- by Agatha Christy.

First Agatha Christy book I have ever read.

Lisa- I met Karen Kingsbury and have pictures with her. She actually had breakfast with my friends and me. My friend is a HUGE fan and organized it. Really cool!

  4. The Mountain Between Us by Charles Martin
  5. The Other Einstein by Marie Benedict
  6. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Currently reading
  1. He Chose the Nails: What God Did to Win your Heart by Max Lucado (for Bible study group)
  2. The Automatic Millionaire by David Bach. Although this book is (c) 2004 and the charts and some other data is long out of date (and it really is directed at the young professionals, not retirees), it still gives some good guidance on financials. Found it among some books on the shelf when I was dusting and picked it up to see if it was worth donating, and I've kept on reading. Maybe it will help me get back on track
  3. Talk to Me by John Kenney

35. Thoron by Gunhild Haugnes - I’m enjoying this Nordic series. Thoron (a real person ) could have been the daughter of King Haakon Haakonson of Norway.
36. Wildfire by Anthony Melchiorri and James Smith - Book one of The New Frontier Series about rebuilding the western US after the EMP

37. The Secret of the Stone by Cao , v. 1 - a 5 volume class of Chinese literature written in the 1700’s. Takes a while to figure out who all the characters are - and there are many - but then it gets interesting. V 2 is on order

40. The Yellow House ; a memoir by Sarah Broom - Coming of age in and around New Orleans both before and after hurricane Katrina. The overriding anchor is the yellow house, even when it no longer existed. I did not enjoy this book
