Reading?

family· Stuart Lee Sims

7 Jul

I love reading. I’ve always enjoyed books, and a great library or bookstore is my happy place. I usually read several books at one time and I have books scattered all over my house. Reading has been hard for me since the loss of our son. I just can’t concentrate long enough to comprehend anything. Given how much I enjoy a good book, this has been sad for me. I have tried (just ask Amazon)! Stuart loved to read too – even more than I do. This has been a catalyst for my continued efforts. He would want me to read!

 

I like a wide variety of genres, but historical fiction is a favorite.

 

This is my latest attempt:

I am definitely slower these days. I need breaks to refresh my mindset. This is a great book and I highly recommend it. Normally, I wouldn’t have been able to put this down for a minute. As it is, I am reading it faster than I thought I would. When I get about halfway through a good book, I start worrying considering what I’ll read next. Thank you Amazon for always being available for that ever present need! 😉

 

Here are a few other great ones.

These are only a few of the newer titles. There are of course many more…I could go on and on!
