I wrote before about my rekindled love affair with reading. There is something to be said about getting lost in a story... the plot, the characters, the conflict, the resolution.
I think it's therapeutic, to say the least.
Since April, I have read 27 books on my kindle, and quite possibly a dozen or more "real" books... There were many winners and a few duds, but here is my list of very favorites:
Honorable mentions:
Reflection (Diane Chamberlain)
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Stieg Larsson)
The Mill River Recluse (Darcie Chan)
Secrets She Left Behind (Diane Chamberlain)
Before the Storm (Diane Chamberlain)
Redeeming Love (Francine Rivers)
Redeeming Love (Francine Rivers)
The Midwife's Confession (Diane Chamberlain)
Her Mother's Shadow (Diane Chamberlain)
Kiss River (Diane Chamberlain)
The Escape Artist (Diane Chamberlain)
Cypress Point (Diane Chamberlain)
The Secret Life of CeeCee Wilkes (Diane Chamberlain)
Water for Elephants (Sara Gruen)
House Rules (Jodi Picoult)
I hope you find the time to enjoy a few good reads this year...

Rekindled love on your Kindle ... intended pun? If not, still brilliant! :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I will look into this Diane Chamberlain author. What do you love so much about her writing that compelled you to read so many books from her this year?
