Okay smarty pants you are not going to make me feel sorry for you! Not even be calling me intimidating!! You actually get to read a book, in fact more than one a year! You even wrote a book review. The last time I did that I think I got an A- for it (Hint: they don’t give book reports as assignments in college!!) I just wish there were more English books that I could check out from our Dutch libraries. Then maybe our house would not be threatening to collapse from the weight of all the paper we have collected.

Love, love luuuv the Dr. Seuss book. It is my favorite graduation gift and I have bought dozens through the years.

As punishment when I was growing up, whenever I was fighting too much with my brothers, my mother made me read Dale Carnegie’s book. At that age, and because I was being punished, I didn’t get into it. But reread it years later and agree that it has some good points!

Seven Secrets is in the pile next to my bed (sigh). That might explain why I am having such trouble with DD1…

You are such a trip darlin’ and I’m so glad you played along!! But you forgot to tag someone and in my book that means your are still IT!! Hugs and laughter!!

I still love reading books except for the ones I’m required to reach which seems like a lot lately. My favorite stuff to read is James Patterson & Dean Koontz. Well, and kids books. Lately it’s been all Halloween books.

BTW, thanks for the review. It was GREAT!

Girl, who has time to read these days? We even get our newpaper via the internet, unless I need to change the bird’s cage, than I make Larry buy a copy on his way home.
I’m trying to read The Other Boylen Girl when I have a moment of free time. Fantastic book. And I recently finished Water For Elephants. Also a good read.
I’m going to check out your favorite reads. I posted once about trying to slog through Jane Eyre. A literary classic. (NOT). I hated every word of it and felt like my eyes were pulling a refrigerator with every page turn.

Good list. I like How to Win Friends and Influence People, good read! Oh, the Places You’ll Go is my all time favorite Dr. Suess!!! I’m such a dork, I love to read! I’ll even read the tampon box if there’s nothing else in the bathroom!

I think this is a lovely list and reflects your warm, loving heart and love of parenting. The stuff I read is all quirky and weird and a lot of it’s useless. I’m so glad FA tagged you! LOVED the list!
