I read a book this year, The Rent Collector, which really left an impact on me. It's one of my favorite reads this year. It talks about a people denied the freedom to read. Can you imagine? Not being able to read? It made me so, so grateful for the freedoms I have that include the freedom to read and learn. So, my thanks to the men and women serving in our countries armed forces to protect those freedoms now and to those who so valiantly gave in times before. My utmost gratitude to you.
I will be giving you the freedom to pick a book of your choice, $12 or less, from Amazon if you are US or The Book Depository if you are INT (and if they ship to your country for free).

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing I like more than being absorbed in a good book. Sitting in the chair by the window, sun shining and a glass of ginger lemonade at hand. Life couldn't be sweeter, or could it? A new book to read would make it even more perfect. There are lots of books on my wishlist, but I have my eye on a particular book. An Amish Kitchen written by Beth Wiseman. My mother used to cook Amish food & I enjoyed their cuisine. I have read other books by this author and the title and backblurb of this book really intruiges me. I have a feeling that lovely memories will come close again when reading this book. So that's the paperback I would love to pick should I be so lucky. Thanks for counting me in!! All the best, Jo's Daughter
