I am reading two books currently.Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting by Lynn Grabhorn and The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz. The Excuse Me book is a borrow from the library. I'm halfway through the book, and really feel I can increase my vibe to bring the things I want into my life. Easier said than done, probably, but atleast I'm a simple girl, so nothing fancy.  The Mastery book was a gift from my SO. He read it when it came out, and bought me my own copy because he LIVES this way. I've always known instinctively that I've wanted to live this way as well... no control over a man in my life. And it's great that he doesn't control me. I'm over halfway through it. It's a hard read for me, because it's chock full of information, and I'm a fast reader. I do not want to read it a second time, atleast not this year. Angela ------------------

"Excuse me, your life is waiting" sounds interesting, I might reserve it in my library.
I read "Anna Karenina" in college and was surprised how much I liked it.
That new Dracula book must be something. It took Kostova what, 10 years, to research it? How do you like it?------------------

“The Years of Rice and Salt” by Kim Stanley Robinson…I borrowed it from a friend…The idea is interesting… It tells the story of several souls in their path to enlightment, through several reincarnations. It’s a very aesthetic book because it’s set up in a parallel world, after the Black Death destroyed the Christian Western Civilisations and China and the Islam flourish becoming the greatest powers on Earth. A bit hard to read though… Very slow moving…

Svetlana ~ It's good, it reminds me of Da Vinci Code in the way that you cannot put it down....each chapter leaves you hanging onto the next. It combines a lot of true facts of History with fiction. It is a very long book, over 600+ pages, it also has tons of detail going on all at once. I recommend it because I am a very picky reader. IP: Logged |

Note to myself: "Reserve "Historian" and "Brain Droppings" at the library"I just checked: there's over 600 holds for "The Historian" in my library! 
Got "The Brain Droppings" though. ------------------
