But they are sooo worth reading. I think they are better than the movies, and that's saying a lot!Haleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18034624196388620979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881409474639520550.post-66077264813508269942011-01-22T10:06:49.467-08:002011-01-22T10:06:49.467-08:00I can ABSOLUTELY help!
I love Gene Stratton-Port...I can ABSOLUTELY help! <br /><br />I love Gene Stratton-Porter's books. I've only read Freckles, A Girl of the Limberlost, and Laddie so far, but I want to read more of her books. The three above are love stories- Freckles is my favorite. <br /><br />I also love P.G Wodehouse books. He wrote these English comedies that are simply hilarious- his Jeeves books are especially good; they are about this young gentleman who is constantly getting into scrapes (often involving love) which his valet, Jeeves, has to help him out with. Mom enjoys these too. <br /><br />Then, To Have and To Hold by Mary Johnston is one of my favorites- it's a long book and it was written a couple hundred years ago, so it's a little harder to get through, but oh so good! <br /><br />Then, if you like murder mysteries, I recommend Dorothy Sayer's Sir Peter Wimsey mysteries. I don't really like murder mysteries as a rule, but these are really good- not gory, but very well written. <br /><br />Then... you've probably read The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom, but if you haven't, that's a good one. And I know she's written at least one more book- Tramp for the Lord- which I haven't read yet but am planning too.<br /><br />I'm just starting the book, Crazy Love, by Francis Chan. So far, so good... I've heard it's really, really, good. <br /><br />L.M Montgomery wrote other books beside the Anne series- including several compilations of short stories.<br /><br />I finished reading Charles Dickens A Tale of Two Cities and enjoyed it very much. I did it for school and it seemed like half the class at least did not enjoy it, however, but if you like Charles Dickens then you'll probably enjoy it.<br /><br />Jules Verne wrote some good books. I've only read two (Around the World in 80 Days; and the ___ leagues under the sea one.) I definitely recommend Around the World; it's not too long and really interesting. I love, love, love it. The other one is good too, it just gets a little hard to get through.<br /><br />I really enjoy Ralph Moody's books; he wrote a series about his boyhood growing up. The first book in that series is Little Britches, telling about how his family moved to Colorado and tried to scrape a living out there. <br /><br />I could probably come up with more, but this is probably good for now. :) Let me know if you end up reading any of them!Haleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18034624196388620979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881409474639520550.post-3716782244280250992011-01-22T08:22:17.424-08:002011-01-22T08:22:17.424-08:00The Help - it's long but SUCH a good book! I ...The Help - it's long but SUCH a good book! I also love Shop-a-holic books for a fun, beachy-read type of mood. Sometimes, I just go to the library and literally judge the book by it's cover and have come up with some really fun, but non-typical for me - books. <br />Good, luck, and happy reading! It's such a fun way to relax!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06081509687158539236noreply@blogger.com
