What I am reading right now

I am reading 2 books right now (that's what I tend to do) and there is a third that is sitting on the counter that I am tempted to pick up! I like to read a mix of fiction and non-fiction. Too much non-fiction can be overwhelming sometimes and I'm in the mood for just a good old fashioned made up story. I will probably do some reviews on them as I finish them so if you are looking for something to read, you may want to take a look.


One of the books I'm reading now is called The Tao of Photography: Seeing Beyond Seeing by Gross and Shapiro, described as " a unique approach to the art of living that draws upon Taoist wisdom and photographic artistry to provide insights into creativity, spirituality, and awareness training." Sounds good to me! I have only read it for about a day now but love it already. I recommend it even if you aren't into photography as a guide to just being more aware of the present moment and all that it holds. A must in today's fast paced world.


The second book I'm reading right now is The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield. Amazon.com says "
Settle down to enjoy a rousing good ghost story with Diane Setterfield's debut novel, The Thirteenth Tale. Setterfield has rejuvenated the genre with this closely plotted, clever foray into a world of secrets, confused identities, lies, and half-truths. She never cheats by pulling a rabbit out of a hat; this atmospheric story hangs together perfectly." Well how can you not want to pick up that book this time of year?! I'm about 5 chapters in and it is yummy.


Sarah is reading The Impeachment of George W. Bush and I keep hearing her sighing in disbelief so it must be worth reading. If you are wondering what it's about, I think the title says it all.

Gotta go....so many books, too little time!
