MIA-reading interrupted
You might (or might not have) noticed that I have been missing in action since Wednesday. When I started this blog I was determined to post regularly and I have been until Wednesday. While I love reading and blogging and don't like having things interrupt my reading, I was fully present as I helped pack up my daughter and move her back to college in Ohio, for her second year of college. I had some time to read (not a lot), but I was mostly focused on helping her and enjoying the time with her. I also enjoyed helping her pick some books to take with her 😀 as she is also an avid reader...I might even have bought her a new book before I left her 😂😂
While I would love to jump right back in and write the book reviews for the three books that I have finished and tell you about the current one I am reading, today I am resting. I am exhausted and I start back Homeschooling my son, who is in 11th grade this year, and I just need today to rest. I am going to spend most of the afternoon reading, which sounds deliciously delightful, doesn't it? Over the next few days, I will get into the swing of things and look forward to posting regularly again. If you are the praying sort, will you say a few prayers for my family, and especially my daughter? These transitions are hard and getting back into the normal routines is also difficult. We are a very close family and my daughter was already having some emotional issues yesterday afternoon. Thanks so much, my lovely bookish friends.
My two loves!!!!
My daughter and her roommate 😀 They were roommates last year and have a great friendship, so thankful and blessed!
Book mail that was waiting for me when I got home!!! My favorite kind of mail... I won the top three books this past month and the bottom one is for a review...
What have you been up to over the last few days? What are you reading?? What books have you added to your stacks?

Can't Wait Wednesday-The Memory Quilt
Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings,
to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet
to read. Typically they are books that have not been released yet. It's
based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This week I am showcasing The Memory Quilt by Lenora Worth. It's expected to release November 30, 2021. It is the first book in her newest series, Shadow Lake. It does not sound like your "typical" Amish read and I look forward to this unique story line!

Top Ten Tuesday-Reread for the first time
Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday! I hope you are off to a great start to your week. This week’s topic is books that you wish you could read again for the first time. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see other readers' books they wish they could read for the first time or their twist on today's topic.
The first book that comes to mind is Pepper Basham's Hope Between the Pages. I thought this book was a literary genius! You can see all my thoughts here.

My Review:
I was not sure if Meri and I were going to get along when the first words out of her mouth was that she hated My Best Friend's Wedding!!! However, I quickly forgave her as she explains why she hates it and how she and Julia Roberts are alike.

My Review:
A Class for Laurel by Amy Clipston
Laurel is excited when she gets to Colorado. It was her first train ride and she was thrilled with all the new sights she had seen as she traveled from Pennsylvania. She is looking forward to being a teacher and the opportunity to teach in a new community.
