Found a New One

I am now reading Lolita by Vladimir Nabakov. Another from Paige. She loved it and I am enjoying it so far. I really like the writing, though the subject matter is pretty controversial. I've only just started, but I feel like this is going to be another quick read.

I realized today there is another thing that I read regularly, though it is a little more unusual than a regular novel. As you might know, I have a book called 14,000 things to be happy about and I have gotten back in the habit of reading a couple pages every day and underlining the things that I really agree with. So maybe I'll start sharing a few of the things I underline in my posts just for fun. Here are a few from today:

• beachcombing
• a barn to make love in (ooh la la)
• a bountiful weekend brunch table covered with an antique lace or linen cloth and topped with country pottery, a napkin-lined muffin basket, stout pitchers for milk or juice, and an earthenware vase of wildflowers (a lot of them have to do with food...)
• opening one's eyes a little more
• the dizzy smell of fresh-cut hay

Well, the list goes on and on. It's a great book, and a good one to share with others, so I'll try to make a habit of doing so here. Maybe I'll even think about starting my own blog........Happy reading!
