Friday Fun…What Are You Reading?

Good morning, Kathy... for me, National Reading Day is every day. There's hardly ever a day when I'm not spending at least 15 minutes reading a book that has nothing to do with business.

Kathy, I brought two books with me, and they are still in the closet.   I usually go for a walk, I did only to the store today.

Good morning Kathy. Roy Kelley got me the read fiction which I rapidly consumed and still do. My grandson likes to read and he likes to read sitting next to me in 20 minute sessions. Sometimes he likes to do two or three sessions bck to back. Any day is reading day if I get the time. Enjoy your day.

Reading to children may be one of the few gifts that creates both an immediate experience and a lifelong capability. Your Delray Beach classroom example is the part that matters most: children saw adults from across the community treating reading as something worth showing up for. A book is valuable, but an adult who makes the book feel important can change the trajectory.

Kathy, Getting lost in a good book is one of life’s simple pleasures!

I have never been much of a reader, but last year I started reading more often, and I am starting to enjoy it.  The book I am currently reading is The Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis.

There is something about real books. Not readers, not phones...real books. When you start them young, their eyes light up with every new book.

Hi Kathy,
I always have a book or two going, depending on my mood. I love the Anne of Green Gables series, and I just downloaded it for some entertaining reading. 

Good Friday morning, Kathy. This is a good day to celebrate.

Thanks for mentioning my book recommendation blogs.

Good morning Kathy,

I read for pleasure everyday before I go to bed and always have a book or two going. Right now I'm reading A Hymn to Life by Gisele Peticot and Home Again by Kristen Hannah and just finished Drayton and Mackenzie by Alexander Starritt!

In the last 2 weeks I have read The Golden Prey by John Sanford and  Six Years by Harlan Corban and  I'm currently about half way into Black Notice by Patricia Cornwell.

I really enjoyed the first two and so far enjoying the third.

I just finished a book part historical fiction called The Boy who led them, about a young smuggler who lived in the 18th century in Kent, England. It starts with a modern day young boy finding an old glass bottle washed ashore which speaks of a treasure. AS Fun read. 

Kathy as I have mentioned before, I am not much of a reader, but my wife and granddaughter are.  My wife reads every night, and my granddaughter reads fairly regularly as well.

Hi Kathy! Oh I positively LOVE to read and usually have the book at my bedside and download the audible copy so I can listen when I'm driving too! LOL I am reading The Housemaid by Freida McFadden and just finished The Secret of Secrets by Dan Brown. I typically mail my youngest the books when I'm finished. We enjoy the same type of books.

One of our favorite series, we read to help us better understand his brother's little boy, Liam (who is autistic). That series was fabulous and I recommend it to everyone! The Rosie Project, The Rosie Effect and The Rosie Result--all fantastic and quick-reads by Graeme Simsion.

Love the video in DelRay! 😍 

Forgot to mention, I don't think I'll ever catch up with all of Roy's books!! He's quite the reader!

I am into memoirs at the moment. I don't get much reading time as my head is often buried in the financial markets I trade. To a degree that is also reading just in bites rather than books.
