More on books: my reading list & more


Books I would like to read this year:

Gossamer by Lois Lowry

The Journals of Jim Elliot by Jim and Elisabeth Elliot

Sacred Singleness by Leslie Ludy

The Naturally Clean Home by Karyn Seigel-Maier

The Mine with the Iron Door by Harold Bell Wright

Body & Soul by Bethany Hamilton

~This is my favorite bookstore...you'll find it in Annapolis, Maryland...a quiet shop brimming with books and has a tiny cafe tucked in the back.  Perfectly lovely!~

A few more of my most-loved bookstores:

McKay - a large used bookstore that also carries used CD's, DVD's, magazines and more.  There are three locations in TN...yippee for me! ;)

Landmark Booksellers - a booklover's paradise!  I've found a few *reasonably priced* treasures here.  This little shop is in Franklin, TN.

Phoenix Books - okay California, this one's for you.  Located in San Luis Obispo, this shop is brimming with books!  Some parts of it looks much like the photo below.  Heaven!

Powell's Books - located in Portland, OR, the location I visited is four stories and takes up an entire block.  I've never, ever been in such a large bookstore.  They have five locations in Oregon, and an online store.  If you want a book, they have it!

What if the book you wanted most was on the very bottom? :)

Are there any books you enjoy that you would recommend to others?  What is your favorite book, the one you read again and again and never grow tired of?
