A List Of Some Of My Favorite Books, Blogtoberfest Day 17, Thankful Thursday

Anyone who says they have only one life to live must not know how to read a book.

A week ago I shared a list of some of the things I'm thankful for.  One of them was my being able to read and enjoy a good book.  I'm sharing a list of some of my favorite reads and in every case, I'm thankful that I got a chance to read these books.   The links will take you to Amazon where you can read about what the book is about and what kind of reviews they were given.

• God Never Blinks by Regina Brett
• Be the Miracle by Regina Brett
• Apocalypse Z, The Beginning of the End by Manel Loureiro
• Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden
• Life of Pi by Yann Martel
• The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett
• Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
• A Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp
• Don't Sweat the Small Stuff by Richard Carlson
• The Middle Place by Kelly Corrigan
• Same Kind of Different As Me by Ron Hall and Denver Moore

I have to be honest and tell you that Apocalypse Z, is not the typical book I read.  But I have the Kindle Fire and they have books that are periodically too good a deal to pass up, price wise.  If you are looking for a good read and a real page turner, this is it.  I read World War Z afterwards for comparison and without a doubt, Manel's book was so much better...

 

Take a look at my list of books under the heading Favorites at the top of my blog.  I have so many others I've read over the years and I can't even begin to remember their names.  I once read a book and got into it quite a ways when things started to sound familiar.  Yup, I had already read it before and completely forgot about it.
