As you learned yesterday, I'm never without a place to write down tasks:
It's quite handy.
What? This is comedy.
One of the things I recently jotted down was a wishlist of books since ten of my faves would be movin' on up to someone else's home. (More on that in a second.)
Here are a couple of great resources I used to compile that list:
Caitlin from commonreaders runs a crazy great blog full of bibliotic things. We are both Emory alumni (she's not snooty Emory like "some" people) and we both like to make lists. She's the reason I'm waiting for this book to arrive:
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. I'm confident it will make the Rabbit Recommends cut.
commonreaders led me to this fabulous place as well:
Q: Wasn't Oprah great in The Color Purple? A: She was.
And no one can deny Ms. Winfrey has done A LOT for the life of reading in our country. On her website, she's posted a list of "25 Books You Can't Put Down." I've ordered the following:
Columbine by Dave Cullen. Read the first chapter.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith. Read the first chapter. See some psycho illustrations.
Now for the winner of my lil' blogiversary contest, 10 of my favorite books will now be at home with...
Jamie.
What? This is a coincidence.
But some of you might consider a name change since the stars seem to shine on the Bionic women of the world.

Yeah Ms Winfrey has done alot for reading in our country and other good deads but too bad she doesn't follow our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I was shocked when I watched the clip of her saying she doesn't believe the Jesus is the only way to the father. You can see it on you tube. She is great at promoting herself, I just wish she would see the light (the real light)and do something for the kingdom. She was good in Color Purple..I can still hear her yelling for Harpo :-)
ReplyDeleteI knew that was your hand because you hold a pen like a 3rd grader.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely shout-out, Jamie! I think you'll really like The Four Agreements. I can't wait to hear what you think. Please do share! I'd love to hear about P&P&Zombies too. My friend Katie and I have talked about reading it, but I'm still not convinced :) Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteCB: Yelling at Harpo is the best!
ReplyDeleteJ: When I posted the pic, I thought "Will anyone notice my goober-way of holding my pen?" Thanks.
C: I AM concerned that the zombies may taint my dear Austen...we shall see...
