Guest lydiahardwood Report post Posted December 29, 2020 Any avid readers here? What books are you looking forward to reading next year? Over Christmas I finished Florence Given's Women Don't Owe You Pretty which I ADORED. It's the type of book you can open on any page and instantly feel empowered. A friend of mine just dropped this to me too haha, I think she knows me well... 😉 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldandNerdy 1304 Report post Posted December 30, 2020 Well I read a fair amount, but usually it's to distract my mind when I'm trying to fall asleep, so I'm usually reading sci-fi or adventure style novels. I recently read "To Sleep in a Sea of Stars" by Christopher Paolini. It's pretty hard sci-fi, but it really stuck with me, so if you're into that sort of thing, and dont mind a loooong read (1600 pages for the ebook version). I'm looking forward to reading the new Michael J Fox autobiography type book. I think it deals with getting older and dealing with the things that he is. I'm also looking forward to "Peace by Chocolate" by Jon Tattrie. It's the story of a Syrian refugee who eventually moved to Canada and made it his new home. He's somewhat of a local hero around their parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ice4fun 78407 Report post Posted December 31, 2020 "Becoming" by Michelle Obama I listened to it on Audible so got to here the story in Michelle Obama's own voice. I was struck by the fact that the Obama's rose from a very modest upbringing into the height of power. It's an excellent book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
