BOOKS + BOOKMARKS MONDAY 9.5.16


MOTHER'S DAY GIFT BOOKMARKS
for this Monday!
*
A very cool version of a bookmark I found at the
local 
bookstore -

Magnetic Page Markers

that slip over the page edge and magnetically hold your spot
so no slipping out or losing that special quote
!
*
I specifically chose this set for the top marker quote,
'She designed a life she loved'
for my dil
{As she's an architect, I thought it might make her smile}
and the bottom one?
Yes, she certainly does 'make my heart smile'.
Not to mention the gorgeous summer blossoms!

BOOKMARKS & BOOKS: IT'S MONDAY! WHAT ARE YOU READING? 11.4.16


Thanks to Kathryn at Book Date

for hosting the long running Monday Book meme
It's Monday! What Are You Reading?
~

~*~
I'm also adding bookmarks for this week's
BOOKMARK MONDAY post
hosted by Guiltless Reader 
~
Because who would admit to having more than needed ?I know.  It wouldn't be me!

I found this bookmark designed for the National Poetry Month April 2016.  Enlarge, save, and print if you'd like one.
*
~
Are you reading any poetry books this April?
My week's reading completions:
Irish author, Carlene O'Connor's debut - I listened to the
hoopla audiobook -  great twists and options,
the ending was a surprise.
~
First Vanetta Chapman for me and the first in series
showed her capability in the genre. Murder in the Amish village
coffee shop, a surprising cast of characters,
and some Amish life insights added to an interesting listen via hoopla download.
~*~
 Two more dramatisations of
Agatha's investigators - one Poirot
using the children's rhyme -
This Little Pig went to market etc.
And the 3rd Miss Marple, revealing her skills of observance and deduction applied in the investigation.  An early days introduction to Marple's talents and personality.  Re-reading.

~*~
This audio brought me to my 100th of the year to date.

~
Definitely an audio listen challenging the listener to reconsider accepting status quo life
in favour of a life of adventure.  To recognize one's talents and abilities to Be You.  
Then to pursue making best decisions in actively using those gifts to Do Good.  Very life-giving.
Debut book by priest, entrepreneur, founder of Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee,
Jonathan David Golden.
Glad I chose to listen.
~

Now Reading?


In a brief pause while I wind up a 6 week class I've been instructing
and prepare for an interview regarding a grant application.
I may update current reading once I pick another book to read or listen.
~
Remains unfinished until there's more reading time.

TBR?
In my book bag waiting for time ...
