Library Time 83

Thanks to a friend I've been introduced to the world of Nero Wolfe by Rex Stout. I was given two Nero Wolfe books, and so far I've read And Four To Go. I am so glad that I found this wonderful character. And a character Nero Wolfe is. He's big (one-seventh of a ton as …

Last year I did the reading challenge that the website Popsugar put out. I didn't read every book in the list, but I had a lot of fun picking the books. Also, some of the categories pushed me out of my comfort zone in reading and discovered some great books. So will you join me …

This week I'm taking a break from some of the heavy adult books to read a childhood classic - Heidi by Johanna Spyri. For the 2015 reading challenge I needed a book by an author with the same initials as mine. I wasn't looking to hard having lots of other books to work on, but …

All this week on her blog my daughter has been having a celebration in honour of Lucy Maud Montgomery. It's been a lot of fun to read the posts and comments and participate in the "tag" she created. You can read my answers here if you want. So this week I thought I would do …

I really didn't read much more than light, fluffy books this week due to a sore throat that lingered for days. There is a time for fluff - when you're too tired/sick to think, but you want to be distracted. 17-year-old daughter - Still staying with the Louis L'Amour collected short frontier stories - call it …

So I read a Dickens' book over the past couple of weeks that I never read before and really had no interest in. However, for the 2015 book reading challenge I needed a book that my mom loves, and this is what she gave me - The Olde Curiosity Shoppe. As a bonus, you can download …

I just realized that it's been a couple of weeks since I did one of these posts. I apologize for that. It seems like our Saturdays lately have been very busy. Today though I'm at home all day - happy sigh. We've had a very busy week so I'm glad to not be going anywhere …

I thought I should give an update on how I'm doing for the 2015 Book Challenge. So this week instead of recommending books I'm showing you where I'm at. I've filled in more spaces, and I obviously have some work to do before the end of the year! To date I've read 127 books, but obviously I'm missing …

This week I read a Hardy Boys book. Yes, you read that right - Hardy Boys. My husband and I went away overnight, and I wanted some "lite" reading. I consider the Hardy Boys brain candy. I didn't want to have to think while I was reading. I just wanted to relax. And I think …

I read a really great novel recently. Marta's Promise by Jeanne Dennis is the story of how Germans were asked to come to Russia by Catherine the Great. They endured great hardships which did not end just because they arrived at their destination. 17-year-old daughter - Rainbow Valley by Lucy Maude Montgomery 11-year-old daughter - …

Welcome to My Blogging Home

Hello, I’m Jennifer. I’m a recently widowed pastor’s wife with eight children. Nothing really prepared me for the wonder and chaos of being a mother to eight or for the agony of losing my best friend. I use this blog to keep myself organized and to hopefully be an encouragement to Intentional Simplicityyou as well.
