AH! This summer is going by sooo fast! I'm travelling like a crazy person for work, so that paired with my no-free-weekends-from-May-to-August has proven very interesting.
BUT I did have a chance to go on my family vacation, which was just splendid. Vacation is always a time when I read as many books as I can get my hands on. This makes for a perfect set-up to this month's Not Alone Series topic!
Grandma and her crazies on the 4th :)
I don't know about you, but if I find an author I like, I just go and read all of their books. So some of my suggested reading list has a couple of my favorite authors with my favorite titles!
Keeping Faith (connections to Catholicism!)
Change of Heart
Lone Wolf
by Jodi Picoult
Pierced By A Sword
Conceived Without Sin
House of Gold
(trilogy of Catholic novels!)
by Bud MacFarlane, Jr.
The Red Tent
by Anita Diamant
The Hunger Games series
by Suzanne Collins
The Wedding
A Bend in the Road
Message in a Bottle
by Nicholas Sparks
Cleopatra's Daughter
by Michelle Moran
The Sister Wife
by Diane Noble
Will you share some suggested reads with us?? I've been wanting to read Bridehead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh and The Betrayal by Diane Noble (sequel to The Sister Wife) but I'm always looking for more ideas of what to read next!!
***Because the summer is a crazy time, the link-up will by open for a few weeks! We hope you'll join us!
Please keep Jen in your prayers as she travels to Aruba this week! Insane! And keep all of us meeting up for #NASavannah this weekend in your prayers as well! We'll be praying for all of you!
And if anyone is interested, many of us decided on the NAS Facebook group to pray the St. Anne Novena together! It begins on Thursday, July 17th and we'd love for you to pray with us as well!!

Topic to be announced :)
Thanks for all the great book ideas! The Wedding is one of absolute favorite books...I want to read it again now! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting, Morgan! What is the sister wife about? It sounds interesting! I read Brideshead Revisited a while back and didn't like it much, but that's probably just me :-) It seemed to drag on, but a lot of people I know really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThe Sister Wife is a novel about the very beginning of the LDS church and sister wives and all...I'm really interested in the LDS church, so I really liked it :)
DeleteI will do the SAME THING with authors' books--like Jodi Picoult. Love her too!
