Welcome to my Book Notes<\/strong> Page. \u00a0This is a page where I keep a\u00a0record of the books I’ve read and I share the notes I took while reading them. \u00a0I always read with a pen and highlighter in hand. \u00a0I’m not much of a fiction reader–I’ve got enough of my own stuff going on, I don’t need to read about the tangled lives of others. \u00a0Plus, as a busy wife, momma and writer, my reading time is limited. \u00a0As with everything here on The Littlest Way, I share my notes because sometimes, I’ll share something you may not have considered while reading and at the same time, hopefully,\u00a0my sharing will encourage you to share your notes with me. \u00a0I like the give and take of ideas and impressions we share here. \u00a0So, grab a highlighter, your favorite pen and notebook and let’s read together.<\/p>\n

\"Book<\/a><\/p>\n

Confession time\u2026I have too many books. Yes, there can be such thing. You see, I keep buying books, even though I have book after book sitting on my shelf that needs to be read. \u00a0Another good reason for this Book Notes<\/strong>\u00a0page, it will encourage me and keep me accountable to read what I have\u2026and I\u2019ve got some great books just sitting on my shelves I can\u2019t wait to dig into. \u00a0And I have many on my shelves that definitely need a re-read, maybe an annual re-read. \u00a0You know the ones right? \u00a0Those dog-eared favorites that we could literally read and re-read the rest of our lives and still find nuggets of gold in the pages.<\/p>\n

The other reason for a Book Notes<\/strong>\u00a0page? I don\u2019t have the means right now for an actual book club. \u00a0I really don\u2019t have the time between loving my man and raising our 7. \u00a0I love, I write, I clean, I cook, I homeschool, I drive my people where they need to go–I’m busy. \u00a0And I know this list is not unusual. \u00a0As much as I think I would enjoy getting out and participating in a real life, in person book club, first, I’m an introvert so I would change my mind about leaving my house right before every book club meeting. \u00a0Second, I’m in a season of\u00a0growing children and it’s good for me to be here. \u00a0 My days are full and my nights have to be guarded carefully. \u00a0I want to have a virtual book club here at The Littlest Way<\/a> with you all. \u00a0That satisfies my need for reading accountability, literary friendship, and being at my home.<\/p>\n

So welcome! \u00a0I hope you enjoy the notes I share and I welcome your thoughts in the comments of the particular book posts.<\/p>\n
