Fervent will be worth your time, Beth. And it reads quickly too. I hope to read a second Louise Penny book sometimes, but there are so many others on my list also! You know how that is. 🙂

Oh, yay! I appreciate you getting back to me about it, Karen. Yes, I couldn’t keep the names and and titles straight either. 🙂 But thankfully there’s no test on it! ha. Glad you enjoyed this book, too. I still think about it when I hear of new prison riots or different situations in the news and wonder what the negotiators are doing behind the scenes.

Just finished Stalling for Time. I enjoyed it. I had fun remembering some of the crises that happened during my life. I enjoyed his philosophy as well. Sometimes the names and titles all jumbled together, but definitely worth reading. Thanks for the recommendation.

My husband laughs because I often read while I’m folding clothes or cooking supper. I know that multi-tasking isn’t the optimal way to do things, but it makes mundane tasks more fun (albeit slower) if I can do them with one hand while my other hand (and brain) is with a book.

I’m 2/3 of the way into Idiot Brain—it’s very good but can be a little technical at times (I’m not reading it for that, ha, but it is about the brain after all!). I finished Words on the Move and it is SO delightful. I hope to share more about it in a blog post soon. It’s relevant in many ways.

Thanks, Sarah. Part of the fun in reading is knowing that it’ll be interesting to someone else too! 🙂
