A few weeks ago, I decided I wanted to start getting into reading again. I'm not the best reader but I enjoy it, especially since it is winter time I have more time to read. So there are two books that I have picked up but I will talk about Shattered Silence first. This book is written by the oldest daughter of 'The Happy Face Killer'. Just knowing that kind of sends you chills but the book is a great read. She goes through her life from the beginning. The first chapter will put you to tears, well it did me. She talks about her precious kittens she has and how she loves to mother them and take care of them. A few pages into it she tells of how her father hates cats and loves to torture them. Now, not only does he like to inflict pain on the kittens, he does it in front of his children. WOW red flag!! For these four kittens she has ,he ends up hanging them up on a clothes line until they die. Now not only is that cold but it's the fact that this frantic 5 year old is clinging to her mother begging her to stop daddy from hurting 'my babies'. This book is, yes, heartbreaking but ends with triumph over fear and a broken heart.
The Blue Bottle Club is a FABULOUS book. A+. It's a story about a reporter who has a story she pursues about these 4 friends who leave behind in a blue bottle their dreams. The reason behind the reporter finding this bottle is the city had condemed the house the bottle was found in and was being torn down. She saved the bottle and began her search for the 4 friends. It's a great great story. I would highly recommend it.
Ok so in conclusion about my new book adventure, I bought another one to read. Costco is a great place to buy books for discount!!!! ANY ways the new book is
I'll be sure to let you know how the book goes!!!! I heard it was a book about Laura Bush and her life but in a novel sense instead of autobiography!? Not sure we'll see!
