For February:
From December's Nightstand:
- Journey into Christmas and Other Stories by Bess Streeter Aldrich - I'm not a big short story person, but these were an enjoyable collection of Christmas stories.
- A Damsel in Distress by P.G. Wodehouse - You can't go wrong starting off your year with Wodehouse. I realized that I had read this title before though it wasn't in my records. No problem, though, since it still was a fun read.
- Do More Better: A Practical Guide to Productivity - I really enjoyed this book, though now I need to sit down and implement it. :)
I also read:
- Mrs. Tim Carries On by D.E. Stevenson - The second book in the Mrs. Tim Christie series. This has been an enjoyable series so far.
- The Story Girl by L.M. Montgomery - I picked up The Story Girl since it was late at night and I couldn't get my hands on my pile of books in my own bedroom so I pulled this off of my daughter's shelf. It has been a long time since I read this and it was a worthwhile re-read.
- Gates & Fences: Straight Talk in a Crooked World by Lori Wagner - Reading for my Sunday School class.
I listened to:
- Gerald and Elizabeth by D.E. Stevenson - An okay read, though not my favorite Stevenson book.
See what others have read over at 5 Minutes for Books.
Do More Better sounds like a book I would enjoy reading. But yeah, doing it is another matter. ha. I always have good intentions; does that count? :) I have actually done lots of reorganizing this month of my digital photos so I'll count that as doing more better.
ReplyDeleteI need to do that! I really need to print my pictures off.
DeleteWodehouse is always fun. So far I don't think I've read Stevenson yet. I have been wanting to get to that one by LMM.
ReplyDeleteI need to add some Wodehouse to my list - I know that I'd enjoy it (just too many books to read!).
ReplyDeleteThe Story Girl was one of my favorites as a teen.
I like your list. :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I think it was you who recommended Penrod. I finally picked up a copy and am hoping to get to it sooner, rather than later.
Awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
DeleteDo More Better is intriguing me as well -- although it makes me feel a little stressed just reading that title! :) Thanks for your Bible reading thoughts at my place -- they were helpful. I'm with you on not liking a plan that divides up chapters. Ack!
