This is the way it’s going…

Hello! Today, in place of the usual Reading Wednesday post, I just have a few things to say: I won’t be posting any blog posts, with the exception of Sacred Sunday, until next Wednesday. No, this doesn’t mean I’m getting tired of blogging. It’s only that with the amount of things going on right now I don’t have enough time…

An Unexpected Post

Well, it might not really be an unexpected post, but given the subject matter, the reference was too good to resist. 😉 What is that subject you ask? J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit. A few months ago I suggested The Lord of the Rings series. (I’ll link to that post here.) Well, here I am again with the book preceding that…

Nancy Drew Mysteries

Today on Reading Wednesday I’ll be sticking with the vintage theme of the last two weeks (Ladies’ Home Magazine Part one and two) and share my Nancy Drew Mysteries collection. Let’s get started! My collection consists of forty-four books. Some of them are the same books, but from different years. I’ll show an example of that in a moment. These…

Ladies’ Home Magazine: Part Two

Today on Reading Wednesday I’m back with the second half of the Ladies’ Home Magazine. We’ll be continuing right where I left off last week. We’ll start right off with the eleventh page of the magazine. It’s full of advice on manners for that time period. It’s interesting to read, though most isn’t really applicable to modern times. I enjoyed…

Ladies’ Home Magazine, Summer 1938

Today I’ll be sharing some of the highlights from a Ladies’ Home Magazine I was recently given. Some of the pages are quite interesting. 🙂 And on the first page we have…an ad. I was actually surprised at the sheer amount of ads that made up the contents of this magazine. I’m not including a picture of every single one,…

Wives and Daughters

Today we’ll be taking a look at Wives and Daughters, which was written by the same author as North and South. Let’s get started! I found this book when I was wandering around Barnes and Noble, trying to find something to buy with a gift card. I spotted this one, recognized the author, and read the back. As usual when…

Prairie Legacy Series: Like Gold Refined

Today I’ll be sharing the last book in the Prairie Legacy series: Like Gold Refined. Let’s get started. As I said, this is the last book of the series. (I’ll leave links to the previous three book reviews here, here, and here.) Next week I’m planning on taking a break from Janette Oke books, and share from another author. You’ve…

Prairie Legacy Series: Book Two

Today we’ll be taking a look at the second book in the Prairie Legacy series: A Searching Heart. (Oh, and ignore the bent book in the photo. Unfortunately, it came that way from where I bought it online.) As you may remember, I talked about the first book in the series in this post. I received the rest of the…

The Lord of the Rings

Hello again! Today is Reading Wednesday, which means more book suggestions. The books in question? The Lord of the Rings. Chances are, if you haven’t watched the Lord of the Rings movies, you’ve at least heard of them. But, have you read the books? The books dive much farther into the world of Middle Earth than the movies. J.R.R.Tolkien had…
