Alright I have exactly 15mins to write a post. What's the rush you ask? The story began yesterday while browsing through the book collection in the corridor I found what is now known as one of my Favorite Books of All Time! The story then eased into the wee hours of the morning as I sat in bed reading till 4am. There were tears, knee slapping laughter and bursts of excitement which had me trying to explain to Robdawg my growing love for this wonderful book. All I could manage was "oh honey this book is out of this world, honey please let me read just this line to you, honey do you want to hear this paragraph, oh my goodness I can't believe that just happened, ok honey I promise I'll go to sleep right after this page, -10 pgs later - oh my goodness honey this is so funny you have to hear it. The wonderful book is called These Is My Words. And no, that's not a grammatical error on my part. The author is Nancy E. Turner. If I was writing a review I'd include that after reading you'll be prompted to record your life for future generations.
I'm a minute over the 15mins mark. I have more reading to do tonight, hopefully I'll be done by the weekend. Please get yourself a copy and revert back, I'm dying to have detailed conversations about everything to do with Sarah Agnes Prine.
Ps: this is the 50th post - HOORAH!
M getting addicted to your blog..... i luv u big time, u such an inspiration and a beautiful soul....God bless u ma!!!1!
ReplyDeletePrecious! That is one of my all time favorite books! There are 2 more in the series (not as good as the first) but still worth the read since I'm sure you've fallen in love with Sarah Prine and the other wonderful characters in the book. Have you read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society?" Another all time favorite! Good luck finding some time to read....motherhood can make that difficult sometimes :)

"The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" is one of my favorites! Sister Sheldon from the Arvada ward suggested it and I loved it. Before reading the book I had never heard of a place called Guernsey! Back to Sarah Prine, I will read the whole series and revert back. I'm nearly finished with the first one, it's all I eat and drink these days:) books are awesome!!!
