This week's topic:  Top Ten Books I Wouldn't Mind Santa Bringing Me

1.) Pioneer Woman Cooks:  Food from My Frontier by Ree Drummond-I love the Pioneer Woman's show and everything she cooks looks so yummy!
2.) Any of Trisha Yearwood's cookbooks-Her cooking show is one of my new favorites.  I sit in my pajamas and drool while watching her show on Saturday mornings.
3.) Hunger Games in Russian- I need to practice my Russian skills and this would be a great way to do it.
4.) The Unfailing Light by Robin Bridges- I really liked the the first book in this series and can't wait to see what happens next.
5.) One Breath Away by Heather Gudenkauf-Gudenkauf's books are so good; I definitely want to check this one out.
6.) The Distant Hours by Kate Morton- I love Kate Morton!  I want to read everything she has written!
7.) A Storm of Swords by George R.R. Martin-I still haven't read Clash of Kings but I know I am going to want to pick this one up right after I do.
8.) Winter of the World by Ken Follett-I am interested to see how this book turns out.  I thought the first one was okay but I have heard that this one is excellent.

That's all I've got!  I am kind of in a reading rut so this was a lot harder than I thought!  What books are on your winter wish list?

  3. Wow - Hunger Games in Russian?! Impressive! I sometimes think about getting books I know well in German or French to practice those languages - but so far, I'm only thinking about it.

Review and Giveaway: "Distant Signs" by Anne Richter

Synopsis: Distant Signs is an intimate portrait of two families spanning three generations amidst turbulent political change, behind and beyond the Berlin Wall. In 1960s East Germany, Margret, a professor’s daughter from the city, meets and marries Hans, from a small village in Thuringia. The couple struggle to contend with their different backgrounds, and the emotional scars they bear from childhood in the aftermath of war. As East German history gradually unravels, with collision of the personal and political, their two families’ hidden truths are quietly revealed. An exquisitely written novel with strongly etched characters that stay with you long after the book is finished and an authentic portrayal of family life behind the iron curtain based on personal experience of the author who is East German and was 16 years old at the fall of the Berlin Wall. Why do families repeat destructive patterns of behaviour across generations? Should the personal take precedence over

Top Ten Books I Recommend The Most

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . This week's topic:  Top Ten Books I Recommend the Most 1.) The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons   2.) Outlander by Diana Gabaldon           If you read my blog at all, you know I love these two books so much!  I am not afraid to suggest them to anyone who I think might enjoy them. 3.) The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins - I was definitely recommending this book left and right when the first movie came out. 4.) The Fault in Our Stars by John Green 5.) A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin           These are two books that I just recently started recommending but they are books that can appeal to anyone so they are easy picks when someone asks for a recommendation. 6.) Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead  - I get a little embarrassed when I recommend this book to people but seriously, just because it has vampires does not mean it is like Twilight. 7.) The Giver by Lois

This week's question is:  "Highlight one book you have received this week that you can't wait to dig into!" Okay, I have a confession to make.  I have been so busy this week that I have not had time to get any new books.  I have several waiting for me at the library but I won't be able to pick them up until this weekend.  : ( Did you all get any exciting new books this week?
