A TREASURE TROVE OF NEW BOOK IDEAS


I honestly don't even remember how I found out about this book, but somehow or other I did and I requested it from our library sytem. It came in this week and what a treasure! "The Pulpwood Queens' Tiara Wearing, Book Sharing Guide to Life" by Kathy L. Patrick is packed full to overflowing with not only her personal story of how she went from being a shy, Tomboy living in Kansas to being the bold owner of THE BEAUTY AND THE BOOK and the eventual founder of the now famous PULPWOOD QUEENS, a far-from-stuffy book club. Along the way of telling her story, she includes lessons she's learned about life, great quotes, and lots and lots of booklists.


Some of the books on her lists are old favorites of mine but most of them are brand new. I've already started searching out my library's online catalog and have enough book recommendations now to last me at least a year! Really. The lists are that good.


I'm so thankful for whatever led me to this pink and leopardy-printed book. Sometimes those unexpected discoveries are the best!
I'll leave you with this quote found within the book's pages:

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The
more that you learn, the more places you'll go." --- Dr. Seuss
