A word from Ann,
Hi all just a note to let you
know that I am an avid reader, my taste in books is very eclectic. Sometimes I like to
read something light, a real page turner mystery such as P.D. James and sometimes I read
to maintain my skills, and sometimes I want to get into a really good classic, the
classics I usually reread every so many years because they are so good. To order any of
the books listed in my pick list simply click on the picture of the book. Have a good
read!

Gale Force
From siroccos to Chinooks to soothing summer easterly, the wind is always
with us. In Wind, naturalist Jan DeBlieu takes a look at this invisible and ubiquitous
force, which has sculpted the terrain and the very shape of civilization. Her account is
lyrical, precise, and when the occasion suits, attractively (and appropriately) breezy.

What I'm Reading Now
Insomnia
By Stephen King it's a great read of course. King keeps you in suspense and shaking in
your boots for a long enough time to let you really get into the story.
The Best Book I Ever Read!

Ben Hur
Historical novel by Lewis Wallace, published in 1880 and widely translated. It depicts
the oppressive Roman occupation of ancient Palestine and the origins of Christianity. The
Jew Judah Ben-Hur is wrongly accused by his former friend, the Roman Messala, of
attempting to kill a Roman official. He is sent to be a slave and his mother and sister
are imprisoned. Years later he returns, wins a chariot race against Messala, and is
reunited with his now leprous mother and sister. Mother and daughter are cured on the day
of the Crucifixion, and the family is converted to Christianity. --This text refers to the
paperback edition of this title.
Don't judge this book from the movie, they only took one chapter and
glorified it until it was no longer recognizable.
