52 Lists Week #16; My Favorite Books

This week's list assignment-- your favorite books was made for me!  I am such a bookworm and I just love to read.  Only problem was I figured it would probably be shorter to list books I don't like than those that are my favorites. 

 I just have so many!



In order for a book (or series) to have made this list I finally decided it had to be ones that I've read, and reread, and recommended to everyone!  

Harry Potter-- One I am so happy to have shared with my boys!
Stephanie Plum Series by Janet Evonovich
The Fox and O'Hare series by Janet Evonovich
And pretty much anything I've ever read by Janet Evonovich
The "In Death" series by J. D. Robb 
Irish Born Trilogy by Nora Roberts 
Bride Quartet Series by Nora Roberts
Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy by Nora Roberts
Weddings By Bella Series  & Weddings by Design by Janice Thompson
Anything by Danielle Steel
The Dirk Pitt novels by Clive Cussler 
The Help by Kathryn Stockett 
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
If I Stay by Gayle Forman 
A Royal Duty By Paul Bureell (My grandmother gave me this book about Princess Diana and I never expected to even read it; never mind enjoy it so much!).
Mount Vernon Love Story by Mary Higgins Clark
Regan Reilly Series by Carol Higgins Clark
Anything by Debbie Macomber 
The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins 
The Divergent series by Veronica Roth 
The Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer
Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson 
All of the Nicholas Sparks books I've picked up so far
The Winter Garden and all of the other Kristin Hannah books I've read
Anything by Sheryl Woods but especially her  Sweet Magnolia series
The Malory series by Johanna Lindsey 
The Hope's Crossing series by RaeAnne Thayne 
Three Sisters by Susan Mallery 
Sea Glass by Anita Shreve
Anything by Jodi Picoult but particularly 19 Minutes & My Sister's Keeper

I could go on and on.... but I won't.  I'll stop there.

      Yep, that is a problem. Usually though my biggest problem is I will buy or check out a book from our library and realize I've read it already once I'm a good two or three chapters into it.

    Love your list. Twilight is one of my favorite book series. I love them. Also I love If I stay. I actually just read it not to long ago. It was a great book. I cryed some though. Great list. I am reading to my One year old everyday and he loves it when I read to him. I trip to the library is in need for this week for him. Hope you have a awesome week.

    I love Harry Potter too and am so excited because my son is getting old enough to listen to chapter books and not get bored. I can't wait to read it to him. Thanks for joining the Family Joy link party.

      I was ecstatic when my kids were old enough for Harry Potter and now they love him just as much as I do. In fact my youngest was sick this weekend and he asked to re-watch all the Harry Potter movies.

    Great list you have here. I enjoyed the Twilight series. I've just finished reading The Shack by Canadian author William P. Young. It was really good.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the white

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn
