On My Bookshelf {June 2015}

June 5, 2015 by Debbie 6 Comments

Here’s what I’m reading in June.

Homecoming book by Cathy Kelly with text overlay which says On My Bookshelf (June 2015)

Homecoming by Cathy Kelly

This novel is set in Ireland and has four main female characters.  Eleanor left Ireland many years ago with a suitcase and her mother’s recipe book.  She has returned from New York and is drawn into the lives of the other women.

Megan is an actress who is hiding from the paparazzi.  Connie is a kind hearted teacher who has all but given up on love and Rae works in a tea room where she dispenses friendship and sympathy, but whose happy face hides a painful past.

The Mom’s Guide To Running A Business by Michelle Lee Ribeiro

This book is a follow up to Crafting A Business.  28 mom entrepreneurs are interviewed and share their stories about running their own businesses while raising a family.

Gray Mountain: A Novel by John Grisham

Samantha Kofer is a lawyer at a large Wall Street firm, until the recession hits and she is furloughed.  She is offered an opportunity at a legal aid clinic for one year without pay.  Now Samantha has to practice real law helping real people.  Very soon she finds herself involved in litigation that turns deadly.

    Mom’s guide to running a business sounds like something I MUST read. I’m reading so many books at the same time that my bedstand is practically crashing under the weight of it all. Rabbit, Run (for the book club this month), The Artist’s Way for parents (to cultivate artistic self-expression in kids), Fifty Secrets of the World’s Longest Living People (because I strive for healthy), Bill Bryson’s book about English (because I love a good laugh), I think you might get tired of reading my long message by this time… Have a good week! See you at Mary’s Literacy Musings.

      Mom’s Guide had lots of beautiful photos and inspiration. I really enjoyed it. I love reading lots of books at once. Your list sounds full of interesting reads Eva!
