I want to know what you are reading now and/or what I should read next but first let me tell you…..I read as often as time allows so I don’t say this lightly…..I just read one of my favorite books ever….Kate Morton’s Homecoming.   It has everything I love….weaving the past with the present, love, mystery, history, suspense and oh so many  twists and turns!   The reason I even knew to read it is kind of funny.   I saw the cover in a train station in Spain.   It looked like this:

I took a picture of it so I’d remember to download to my Kindle and I got in trouble.   The shop owner started screaming “No foto!  No foto!”    I was horrified and certainly stopped taking pictures!  It was worth the embarrassment though, because I  really really loved it and highly recommend.   I strongly suspect it will eventually be a film.

Now it is your turn!   Leave a comment to let me know what I should read next.   I’ll update the list Friday with everyone’s suggestions and will also include Peggy and her daughter’s recommendations!
