March has ended up being a good month. I was wanting to have Les Miserables finished by today, but that didn't happen. Right now I am aiming to have it finished by the end of March. April is gearing up to be an incredibly busy month, so I am making my Nightstand a little lighter. If I get more read I will be more than thrilled.
April's Nightstand:
From February's Nightstand I read:
- Heirs of the Body: A Daisy Dalrymple Mystery by Carola Dunn - A new book in the Daisy Dalrymple Series.
- Missee Lee: The Swallows and Amazons in the China Seas by Arthur Ransome - Great fun! (review)
- Feminine Appeal: Seven Virtues of a Godly Wife and Mother by Carolyn Mahaney - Very enjoyable and uplifting read.
- Wife After God by Jennifer Smith - Review forthcoming.
I am currently reading and almost finished with:
- Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
- Taken at the Flood by Agatha Christie - Another Poirot.
- Miss Buncle Married by D.E. Stevenson - A fun follow-up to Miss Buncle's Book. I think I liked this book a little better than the first.
- Dreams, Plans, Goals by Ken Gaub - Most of this I've heard or read before, but I did walk away with a tid-bit or two to jot down and dwell on.
- Handoff: The Only Way to Win the Race of Life by Jeff Myers - Offering how-to pass on your values and your belief's to your children. Small book that packs a powerful punch.
- Black Sheep by Georgette Heyer - Not Heyer's best, but still enjoyable.
- Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
- Abraham Lincoln's World by Genevieve Foster
As always, I'm impressed. Almost finished with Les Mis? Wow!
ReplyDeleteI own Les Miserables, but have not read it... Loved your list. I am a big Dickens fan, but have never read Oliver Twist. Tale of Two Cities is one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to "meet you" through the "What's On Your Nightstand" link up today! :)
Hmm...those Miss Buncle Books are catching my eye.....
ReplyDeleteI read the unabridged Les Mis a few years ago. One of my favorites though I could have done without some of the side trails. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have Feminine Appeal but haven't read it yet.
I've never tried Heyer but should some time.
It's always good when you can recognize that you'll be busy up front and set your expectations a little lower for a month.
ReplyDeleteFeminine Appeal catches my eye, but I have such a back-log of Christian living type books already on my bookshelf. It's hard to know whether I should get any more or not.
