Book Lovers Unite! Share Your Favorite Books
I love reading; I always have. I’m sure it has everything to do with my parents reading to me when I was little. I’m not sure when or why I stopped reading for enjoyment, but I’ve decided I’m going to dive back in! I’ll probably focus on some classics, but would love to hear your recommendations or favorite books.

What Are You Reading?
What’s on your book list? What are you reading? I posed this question on Facebook, and my cousin, Julie, said she’s reading “Theo of Golden” by Allen Levi. Since it was on my list, I figured I’d read that next. I’m on chapter 10 currently, and enjoying it.
Here’s a brief synopsis –
One spring morning, a stranger named Theo arrives in the small Southern city of Golden. He doesn’t explain much about where he came from or why he’s there—but when he visits the local coffeehouse, where pencil portraits of the people of Golden hang on the walls, he begins purchasing them, one at a time, and giving each portrait to the person depicted. In exchange, he asks only for the person’s story. And so portrait by portrait, person by person, secrets are revealed, regrets are shared, and ordinary lives are profoundly altered.
A story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is an unforgettable novel about the power of generosity, the importance of connection, and the quiet miracles that happen when we choose kindness and wonder.
