I loved Left Neglected and Touch and Go. The color of tea was pretty good, hated Reading Lolita in Tehran. Am currently reading One Moment, One Morning and its pretty good. </p> <p>I LOVED Light Between Oceans - probably my favorite book of 2012! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-for-book-recs#post-623923 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 08:24:30 +0000 FarmWifeGina 623923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I read it once a few years ago and thought it was pretty good, but then read it again within the last year and thought it was even better! I love the author's way with words and the wonderful pictures she makes with them, but I think too that my evolution as a woman and a doula and the way I view pregnancy and childbirth and the sisterhood just really jived with the book when I read it last, I really got it, per se. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-for-book-recs#post-623895 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 08:08:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 623895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: Love this book!

I had to put it down for a few days and decide if I wanted to continue. I never leave books unfinished, but that one could have been the first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-for-book-recs#post-623874 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 07:56:54 +0000 hilsy85 623874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: that book made me so mad! I read it while in my 3rd trimester, so that might be why...(don't want to give away any spoilers!). </p> <p>I'm reading anna karenina right now. Not a short read, but actually a pretty enjoyable one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/looking-for-book-recs#post-623693 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 03:00:14 +0000 Sweet T 623693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been trying to read a lot this year because I didn't read much this year.
