The Notebook

I just finished reading Nicholas Spark's THE NOTEBOOK. I've never seen the movie, but now probably will have to... I loved the book, very romantic... I hope at the end of my life to be able to have that kind of love.

On to Wuthering Heights... Emily Brontë's only novel... I try to throw a classic in every 5 or so books because I preach to my kids that they should read them... so I figure I should set a good example. In the past year or so I've read Vanity Fair, Tale of Two Cities, Bleak House, War of the Worlds and Pride & Prejudice...

I also made 3 more book journals today to give as gifts this holiday season... SO much fun...

Book Journal

I created this journal as part of an online scrapbooking class I'm taking over at Big Picture Scrapbooking . I made it with Basic Grey paper/stickers and a few vellum quotes out of your standard Mead Composition Book. It has a section for "books to read"; "books read"; "thoughts about books"; "book quotes" and "books to share"... Fun huh?

Brother Odd

In keeping with the "Odd" series... this is another winner in my book... Dean Koontz did not disappoint me. Odd Thomas is in true form again in this book. I truely recommend this book to anyone...

Angels & Demons

I just finished reading Dan Brown's Angels & Demons... loved it as much as I loved the DaVinci Code. It was one of those books you just don't want to put down.

I heard this weekend that they are making it into a movie with Tom Hanks again. Am looking forward to seeing it when it is released. I don't ever believe that a movie is as good as the book, but I do enjoy seeing movies made from books that I love... it just gives me another perspective of the book.

Keep reading!! I'm starting on Dean Koontz Brother Odd next...
