With each season change comes up a stack of treasured books. Our biggest book stacks are in the Fall and for Christmas. Without fail we always read more after new books show up.

When I moved to Connecticut I brought up the idea of starting a book club to four friends and they all told me they do not read or they were already in a group. So I dropped the idea.

Luckily they were all in! I recently ... Read More
