I love to take them because we're all so delighted that she's such an avid reader. I was a reader as a child and her mom was but this kid reads circles around us. I'm knee deep in murder mysteries this summer, perfect for easy reading and easy living. My favorite mystery author is Louise Penny who has a new Gamache novel out in a month. Right now I'm reading Martha Grimes latest Richard Jury novel. She has such an amazing way of weaving humor into her stories.Dottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-31765083908944700372014-07-21T09:47:08.474-07:002014-07-21T09:47:08.474-07:00Wow, I'm right there with ya, you would have t...Wow, I'm right there with ya, you would have to take me kicking and screaming from that reading room in the woods....sigh!!

Reading in a beautiful spot like that has to be pure heaven! I have the Anna Quindlen book waiting for me to take on vacation in a week and a half and I'll be reading it on the beach.

Sigghhhhhh....what a beautiful space! You must have gasped with delight when you came upon this! I would love to come visit you, sip wine and read here. (and I love your first photo of the stack of books - real books. I know I will succumb some day, but for now I don't own a Kindle. Just real books made of paper for me!) heyjudephotographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098165048025314116noreply@blogger.com
