Jodi Picoult

This book, Handle With Care, is not on my Oprah book list but someone lent it to me and I do love Picoult's books, like her other ones I couldn't put this one down, like her other ones it is a controversial book. This book deals with whether to abort a baby with a disability or not, which disability is more worthy than others. I was able to see all the characters point of view of the issues they have to deal with. It also shows what the family members have to deal with by having a daughter/sister with a disability and their daily routines. I definitely recommend it and would like to see your thoughts on it too.

My next book is Heroic Measures by Jill Ciment.

I have finished book number 4: Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast. It was about his life told by him as he was living in Paris in the 1920's. I got to "meet" some of his friends and other noble writers such as F. Scott Fitzgerald. Hemingway definitely enjoyed his alcohol and drank at every possible time he could find. He also enjoyed going to the track to see the horses.

My next book to read is Jodi Picoult's newest book Handle With Care.

Bzzzz

Plan Bee was definitely an interesting book especially if you like bees. It is basically a book all about the facts of bees, honey and beekeeping. If you are interested in becoming a beekeper this book would be very useful, unfortunately that is not my calling in life. I did learn a lot about it and I will see bees in a different way from now on, but I think I am ready for another type of book so the next one on my list to read is A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemmingway it is his biography.
