After reading your comment I went to my county library's website to request Kristin Kimball's book. I appreciate the suggestion!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-62560544150454232872011-01-07T20:17:43.469-05:002011-01-07T20:17:43.469-05:00Leigh,

But reading books is another pass time. I finished the "Sookie Stackhouse" series and I will be rereading a "Tom Clancy" novel soon. But the best book I have read latly is "The Dirty life, Of farm, food and love" Non-fiction and a great read.Tom Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08617525385016644041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-7575141549114343952010-01-19T21:30:15.373-05:002010-01-19T21:30:15.373-05:00Lee I wish I could say that those Edible Forest vo...Lee I wish I could say that those <i>Edible Forest</i> volumes are mine.

I really want that set of books, but I've been resisting a purchase until I read the two permaculture books already on my shelf -- <i>Introduction to Permaculture</i> and <i>Gaia's Garden</i>.<br /><br />That said, I've been on an rare fiction-reading kick since December of whatever my wife leaves lying around, mainly books by Lee Child and Dick Francis so far.Leehttp://farmfolly.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-88098456367217312492010-01-18T18:10:58.164-05:002010-01-18T18:10:58.164-05:00I think I must be one of the best "customers&...I think I must be one of the best "customers" in the local library and luckily I can borrow from the whole of the county via my local library! I figure the 1 euro per book I order like this is well worth it! I'd need a credit card to order from amazon - which can be a nuisance, but also safer (I'd probably blow the budget at amazon if I had a card:))....Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-79391858553166331902010-01-17T22:32:07.889-05:002010-01-17T22:32:07.889-05:00Aw Sue, the least I could do was straighten the st...Aw Sue, the least I could do was straighten the stack. ;) I have to admit that a lot of those books (the non-fiction ones) I don't read cover to cover. I treat them more like reference books and read what's relevant for the moment. I figure I can always come back to them as needed. <br /><br />Benita, I only read one fiction book at a time. But I love have several others to choose from depending on my mood. All the books in my current stack are fascinating to me. <br /><br />Bettina, do you have a library close by? I love to browse book shops but I always spend too much when I'm at one. Of course, then there's Amazon.com ....Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-51328167265032971192010-01-17T19:17:41.484-05:002010-01-17T19:17:41.484-05:00no nightstand with books - I never read in bed:)) ...no nightstand with books - I never read in bed:)) but - I am about to finish Stieg Larssons "girl who played with fire" - and looking forward to the 3rd book of the series... before that I'll read the 2nd of celine kiernan's trilogy though - took me long enough to get to a shop to buy it:)) no practical books for me just now....Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-21164243073174530602010-01-17T18:46:34.474-05:002010-01-17T18:46:34.474-05:00Let's see "Over My Dead Body" A Nero...Let's see "Over My Dead Body" A Nero Wolfe Mystery by Rex Stout.<br /><br />Can you believe I'm reading only ONE book right now?

But, reading to children counts! Maybe you could do a childrens reading stack and pick out one book for yourself too. <br /><br />Annie, now you've got me curious about <i>The Hippopotamus</i>. I may have to check it out. At least you have some fiber books to read!

One of the next books I'll read is the last of the three Stieg Larsson books. And I treated myself to 4 knitting books this week. I'll write about those in my blog. I ought to put a translator on my book blog... Don't quite know how to do that. It's fascinating to see what people are reading!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09457801491872035594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-81240731769426978682010-01-16T11:41:58.754-05:002010-01-16T11:41:58.754-05:00Very cool to see what's in your stack.....I am...Very cool to see what's in your stack.....I am not reading like I should, I love to read, it just seems that three little peoples need my attention! ;-) I am not good at multi-tasking like some.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04891945462999914908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-36739607157952825522010-01-16T11:23:22.971-05:002010-01-16T11:23:22.971-05:00Now that's my kind of reading!Now that's my kind of reading!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02775727376347737034noreply@blogger.com
