March was a good month for reading and I whittled down my TBR pile a bit. (Of course, as soon as I read one, I add two to the list…hehee!)

The Reader (Movie Tie-in Edition) (Vintage International) by Bernhard Schlink
Now and Always by Lori Copeland
Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1) by Stephenie Meyer
Last Kiss by Luanne [...]

A coworker left this one in my box at school and I know I’ll end up watching the movie once it comes on Pay-Per-View so I’m starting The Reader by Bernhard Schlink now.  I don’t know anything about it other than the movie was nominated for awards this year. It’s not too long so it [...]

Today’s audio book is Nights of Rain and Stars by Maeve Binchy.  Having finished Twilight in record pace, I’m waiting for the next installment to be ready at the library. I’ve read some of her novels in the past and I love books set in different countries so always captivates me. Listening on audio book [...]

Picked this one up at the school book fair and it’s a good one to get some ideas for some outside units with my students. I’m such a nature lover, books like this attract me all the time. <3  I’ll be scanning i love dirt! by Jennifer Ward looking for good ideas.

Well, I did it.. I got sucked in. I didn’t think that I would be interested in the immensely popular Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer but we watched the movie the other night and I’m hooked. I was mesmorized by the story (and they picked the perfect actors to play the roles to do it!) [...]

Picked up Now and Always by Lori Copeland in the new book section at the library based on the soothing cover of meadow flowers and horses in the mist.
From the jacket:  Very few things distract Katie Addison when she’s on a mission whether it’s opening her home to abused women, rehabilitating injured horses, or helping [...]

My current audio book is Last Kiss by Luanne Rice. I’ve never heard of her or the book but I grabbed it while at the library the last time I went. It’s likely to be a light romance book in the midst of the non-fiction that I’m currently reading.
From the jacket:  A face on a [...]

Since I’m a Prevention Magazine reader and the Flat Belly Diet by Liz Vaccareillo and Cynthia Sass is one of theirs, I figured I’d check it out and see what the hype is about. I’m not really  a “diet” type but I do like to read various diet and nutrition books.
From the Jacket: Sixty-seven percent [...]

This week’s audio book is Mitch Albom‘s for one more day. He’s the author of Tuesday’s with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. It’s a really short one, read by the author that I’m listening to back and forth to work.
From the jacket:  For One More Day is the story of a [...]
