ScarletRose:LOL, you think that list would have been smaller?
thanks for the list amandalove!!

Dolittle: lol sure lol

shoot, I used to be such a book worm that I could finish a Harlequin SuperRomance in 3 hours. Now I never have the time to read.

Eriisa: i know depends on where you are in life right now i am at the retirement stage of my life i have 4 herniated discs and bad knees. from 87 to 95 i was single danced 7 nights a week held down 3 jobs worked over 60hours a week now can't. glad my daughter gave me this membership to bk it helps with depression of having to become invalad when i feel like 35 years old in my widdle head.

amandalove: LOL, I can identify with that. I'm only 48, and the other days I tried to kinda race from the bedroom to the front to get a phone call, and DANGIT!, my feet were so stiff, that I couldn't do it.

Its my own fault tho, I just wont take the time to excersize... Let alone just walk a block or something.......

now, lets see, how can I get this on topic???? I know! anyone read any great motivational books lately?

Eriisa:Now that was fast thinkin'!!LOL
It's much more fun to grab a good book than to walk or exercise. I have to get busy on that sort of thing myself tho..just know I gained over the holidays..only book I read was a cookbook!!

I just re-read this book after many years and it seems to be a great read and thought I would share that with everyone. If you ever get the chance to read it, please, do enjoy it!

sounds really interesting ty

amandalove: Living Buddha, Living Christ Review

amandalove: I am reading A Million Little Pieces and just bought Patricia Cornwell's, Isle of Dogs. Have you read that one?

Dolittle: i don't think so i heard the other day that "everyone" is upset with the author of a million pieces and oprah cause she backed him and he made up the whole story and was selling it as his own life????

amandalove: I heard that too on the news.
He said that he added some to the story but that the rest is true!

Dolittle: Must be a good book, to get that much air time! Thanks for the suggestion of reading it!

cosmicdom: It is good and a best seller!
All the stuff he went through would be hard to make up entirely.

amandalove:PM me your mail addy and I will send you that book when I finish it!!

...read "Night" by Elie Wiesel.

GeorgiaBoy:Thanks Greg, will have to check on that one!

as from now on: i am the new witch of the books board :)

Tuesday: :)

Hrqls:Congratulations, know you will do well with the board!

Dolittle: with your help

Hrqls: I am here anytime you need anything. don't think I am that well versed on being a mod but I sure will try!!

Just finished reading Swan by Frances Mayes..a pretty good book!

Dolittle: What's it about?

Eriisa: Story of a Georgia family and their trials and tribulations. Frances Mayes also wrote Under the Tuscan Sun, Bella Tuscany, and In Tuscany. I plan to buy some of those!

I thought I had heard of the author!

Eriisa: I caught a book sale at WalMart and picked that one up because it sounded interesting. Now I am going to look for more of her work.

Eriisa: Would you like to have that book?
I would be happy to send it to you.

Sorry Do! I did read this and started to answer then got distracted and forgot.

I an NOT admitting that I do this all day long. (Jim laughs at me)

I think I'd love to read it. do you still have my addy?

Eriisa: Yes, I do have your addy..will send it in a day or so! Hope you enjoy it!!
Jim and my Bill are on the same wave length!!LOL

LOL, now why doesn't that surprise me! lol

Eriisa: ROFL, Bill reads his book while the Olympics is on...devoted fan eh!!

Can I be next in line for Dolittle's book Eriisa???
You don't mind if she passes it on, do yo Dolittle???

baddessi: Hon, I don't mind at all. I caught a fantastic sale on books and love to share...pass it around!!

LOL, oh goody, the Brainking Book Ring!

sure will baddy!

oh cool, and then when I'm done I'll send it back to Dolittle with the Janet Evanowich book I wanted her to read! LOL
How cool- it's a ...."Book-a-round"!!! : )

baddessi: What fun that will be..you don't have to send Swan back to me tho dessi, find somebody else that wants to read. We will each put our name in a book and pass it on. Cool idea!!!

yeah, I like that!

Ok, then our "Book-A-Round" is a reality. Let anyone that is interested know about it and we just might have a real good thing going here!

Hi I just found out about this place.

I have just given away 4 of my favorite books to a new friend

But I have many more to share

I would love to discuss what anyone else is reading

ajtgirl: I like a mixture of books from mystery to comedy. A good love story would be in order also. Actually I think most of us enjoy most any really good book!

Add me to the list for Swan. I am mainly mystery but not stephen king type thats too scary.

amandalove: Will do girlfriend! Has to go to two others before you but it will get there.

I was thinking we need to make a request list, but I'm not sure....... oh wait, I got an idea!!!!

Eriisa (finished and passed it on)
Baddessi (finished and passed it on)
amandalove (finished and passed it on)
ajtgirl (finished, and passed it on)
*ScarletRose

* - person who currently has the book

If you would like to be added to the list, please post a message onto the board, and we will add your name!

Hqrls, can you put a link up for this called 'Swan by Frances Mayes - Request List' ?

Now what we can do is edit that message with additonal names so we will know who it goes to next. We can also do the same thing with other books.

Sound good?

Eriisa: Sounds great and here I was thinking I would have to write it all down..you is so smart...cough, cough!
BTW, the book is on it's way to you but I forgot to write my name in the front so could you do that for me! I thank you ma'am!!

LOL, ok,

next question. Name or BK ID in front? wink?

Eriisa: nice idea, done
