It is crunch time with just a few days before the wedding. Last week I would have guessed that I had not time to read, but did manage to find the time.
Thoughts on the Books I Read Last Week:
The Life List by Lori Nelson Spielman
This is perfect when you need a feel good, happy ending book! Did you ever make
a list of goals, wants, wishes when you were young? Still have that list? Brett
made such a list and unbeknownst to her it was found and kept by her mother.
After her death, Brett's mother encourages her to fulfill the list. Brett,
devastated at the request, sets out on a quest to do as her mother asked. An
emotional, funny journey with a predictable, but satisfying ending. A nice
summer read.
Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire
This is Beautiful Disaster told in Travis' voice with a little bit of added info because we are in Travis' mind instead of Abby's. I look forward to his brother's stories.
Family Pictures by Jane Green
Family dysfunction at its finest! Sylvia and Maggie are married to the same man. Eve, Sylvia's daughter, goes to NY to visit and meets Grace, Maggie's daughter. Eve is invited home with Grace and sees the family pictures. Another great summer read.
Beckman by Grace Burrowes
Book 4 in the Lonley Lord Series (stands alone well). Beckman and Sara are both running away from their pasts. They meet when Beckman is sent to this family estate to put it back in order. Sara is the housekeeper. Their love story is sweet and very enjoyable.
Up Next:
Looking For Me be Beth Hoffman
The Apple Orchard by Susan Wiggs

I hope you enjoy the Apple Orchard. I tried one Jane Green book but didn't like the style!
You have the Hoffman book coming up? Lucky you :)
I thought the Apple Orchard was pretty good!
The Lavender Garden needs to go on my list I think. My mom and I I are going to a lavender festival this week, it would tie right in. ;)
And here's the link! Duh...

Family Pictures sounds like an interesting concept. I'll have to add it to my wishlist. Best wishes for the wedding. My Monday Report is here. Happy reading!
I keep hearing GREAT things about Looking for Me, I hope you enjoy it!
Happy reading :D
The Life List looks awesome--kind of like Joy for Beginners, maybe? I have The Apple Orchard on my kindle, not up to it yet. Enjoy your week of reading.
Family Pictures is definitely a great summer read. I hope you have a great week and enjoy all your books!

I'm looking forward to reading Looking for Me in the near future too. Have a great week of reading!
Looks like your got a busy week ahead, enjoy.
Great books!! I hope you like Looking For Me.
Happy Reading!!
You are going to love Looking For Me. I love books about family dysfunction but probably not the ideal reading material right now so I'll just put Family Pictures on my wishlist. On the other hand, The Life List sounds like just what I need.
Thanks for visiting Nise, I hope all the wedding plans and reno work is going smoothly.
I love Jane Green and Susan Wiggs. Enjoy!
family pictures got my attn..
They all look good. I think I'll have to check out the Life List.
Love your mini-reviews...making note of a few of them!
