A more apt title for this post might be “We
Take Books Places.” Allow me to explain.
For some time now Carolyn has been
reading to me as we drive. This is one
of the great joys of our marriage. It is
a shared event and provides us with wonderful conversation moments as we dissect
the characters and thoughts provided.
We catch reading moments every chance we
get.

way
~On the way to church 30 minutes each way
~Driving to our Friday night date-night
location
~When taking a drive around the beautiful
countryside of the northwest
And just about any other time we are in
the car
At the beginning of November we were
searching for our next read and decided to start Christmas a bit early. Just last night we finished The Christmas Train by David Baldacci. I must say, this is by far one of the best,
most entertaining and memorable books we've read together. I would highly recommend this to you.
