I'm going to order these books on my Nook from my Mother's Day B 'n' N gift card:

The True Secret of Writing, by Natalie Goldberg and Thunder and Lightning, by Natalie Goldberg. Both books are for writers and are about writing.

Then, I'll order two Debbie Macomber novels. One is "Starlight" and the other is "Coraline's Child."


I love reading! :D

On Mother's Day, DD returned some of my Sarah Ban Breathnach books:

"Simple Abundance - A Daybook of Comfort and Joy"

"Moving On,"

"Romancing the Ordinary", all 3 by the same author above. She's a good author for re-reads, too. :idea:

Head to Head, by Linda Ladd. It's a very spooky book, which was available through the free Nook Blog last Friday. It's so scary that I have to read it in short spurts, but it's VERY GOOD and quite scary and an awful lot of fun to read. I can hardly wait to see where the author takes me, by the end, because the beginning certainly is starting out scary! :!: It might turn out happy in the end. I'll keep you posted. :idea:

I just pre-ordered (to be release Aug. 13, 2013) Debbie Macomber's book Rose Harbor in Bloom, which is a sequel to The Inn at Rose Harbor, released last summer. She writes such lovely characters and good plots, which make me smile. :D
