the best of the books I read..

the Guernsey Literary and potato peel pie society.. 

                   

my favorite quotes from this sweet little book.. 

Am I to particular? I don’t want to be married just to be married.. I cant think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I cant talk to.. or worse.. someone I cant be silent with..

he could make any homely and familiar thing into something fresh and beautiful..

have you ever noticed that when your mind is awakened or drawn to someone new.. that persons name suddenly pops up everywhere you go?  my friend calls is a coincidence, and my parson friend calls it grace..  he thinks that if one cares deeply enough about someone or something new.. one throws a kind of energy out into the world. and“fruitfulness” is drawn in..

I now dog ear my page at the top when I am done reading for the night.. and dog ear the bottom page to hold onto a quote I love.. and now I am starting to pass on the books I read.. no longer holding them on a shelf for only my enjoyment (and clutter).. there will always be exceptions though.. The Red Tent isn’t going anywhere ;)
