TheBookHippie @tpixie it‘s a theme in many Holocaust memoirs. I follow the Redhead on IG. ♥️ 2y
tpixie @TheBookHippie it‘s a great theme. She is a special lady. Her book was a little emotionally difficult to read. Luckily they flashed back to previous years every other chapter as a palate cleanser. 2y

My husband is a reader, but doesn't have quite the obsession that I do. He's really not concerned with tracking what he reads. I started maintaining his Goodreads account this year, and on a whim today I used the Compare Books feature. We both nearly fell over laughing. I've been on Goodreads for 10 (!) years now, and my 870 vs. his 21 also includes an extensive to-read list, but still... the visual is hilarious.

BarbaraJean He said his books make mine look like they have a zit. 😂At least our tastes are 80% similar! 7y

L'Engle explores some of the realities of the #goldeyears. #JuneTunz @Cinfhen

Cinfhen That drawing on the cover, reminds me of my old house in Pennsylvania 😢 🏡where I always imagined spending my #GoldenYears 😥😢😫😩 7y
Lcsmcat It's funny the curves life throws us. I always thought I'd spend my golden years in the house in Utah where we raised our kids. When we moved here I named this house "Final Hemlock" for the tree we planted, and to say "No more moves!" ? 7y
Cinfhen Did you stay in the house?? 7y
Lcsmcat So far. 🤞🏻 7y
Cinfhen Sweet🙏🏻#FinalHemlock 🌳 7y

Jumping in on day two of #somethingforsept with this stack of number titles. The wee bit of OCD in me had a hard time deciding between a size-ordered stack and a number-ordered stack. Aesthetics won out. #numberintitle #septphotochallenge

Desha Two-part Invention is one of my favorite books! I love the entire Crosswicks series! 💖 8y
BarbaraJean @Desha 👍 So far, I've only read this one and Irrational Season- need to move the other two up on my TBR. 😊 8y

Reading from my back-list this week, and discovered this lovely meditative work.
