My husband got me a Kindle for Christmas in 2009 (after he ignored my plea for a pair of Reebok Easy Tones). By the time he got around to picking out a gift, the Easy Tones were long gone and I got a Kindle instead! While I am an avid reader, baby duty usually won out and I neglected to spend some time for myself....until recently!
Lennon is relatively easy to deal with these days so I have been devouring any book I can get my hands on....and since I do a fair bit of research before purchasing, I thought I'd start passing along what books I've enjoyed recently!
I recently read this during a weekend vaction that we took to the Ozarks. Thank goodness it rained the whole trip so that I could devour this! As a mother, I found myself enthralled and disgusted at the same time. I couldn't believe some of the tactics that the author freely admitted to using in order to get the best results from her children. An absolute must for ANY parent to read....gives you a whole new perspective on raising children!
Ok, I know I'm a little behind the eight ball on this one (Sorry Oprah) but this was a book that I absolutely could not put down! It's written so well that you can actually see the circus coming up around you! Well worth the time!
Happy reading everyone, I'll keep you updated on the next books on my list "Three Cups of Deceit", "The Lincoln Lawyer", and "Please Look After Mom"!
Love the blog already : ) I've been thinking about reading those same books...and like 20 others, lol. If only the free time in a day was unlimited. I am just finishing up The Girls from Ames and I LOVE it. It's such a great mix of novel like story telling, Ames history and statistics and facts supporting the need for strong friendships with other women. Great read!
