Books
Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4. We ask 4 questions each week to get you talking, thinking, questioning and seeing how your friends feel about things too. It helps us get to know other bloggers.
Let's think about books and reading this week.
1.Do you have a favorite place to read? Maybe you can post a photo of it or describe it for us?

| A Special Reading Nook |
2.Some say reading makes a person more educated, more informed. Do you think novels do this in any way? Do you learn things from novels? Would you tell us what you have learned?
Certainly! I have learned lots of cool terminology for different areas where my books are set. Marsh grass is something we don't have here that I am aware of. I enjoy traveling vicariously through others especially in my novels I read.
3. Are there any books on your list to read right now?
Always: I like clean and wholesome romance novels so RaeAnne Thayne, Rachel Hanna and others are at the top of my list. I have read everything Jan Karon wrote and she was my all time favorite. I have not seen anything new from her in a longtime but her stories capture your heart.
4, Which books did you like the most and which did you dislike most?
When I was younger I read lots of Danielle Steele novels. She has been around a very long time and her books seem to be timeless. I am not crazy about too much graphic anything in books. I like stories with conflict that end well. The world is sad enough without more sadness to add to it. I read to getaway from the world as we are seeing it today. Rachel Hanna writes series books and they are not very lengthy. Sometime you can go on and on and she has a really method to her writing. Reading things like War & Peace and other encyclopedia style books that weigh a lot and have too many pages were ok when I was younger but I like short & sweet these days.
Reading makes me very happy so I am sharing this with Happy Tuesday

I like Danielle Steele too! Most of what she has written has been really entertaining. I think a lot of TV movies were based on her novels too. Thank you for joining in!
I love that reading nook. I want that reading nook. Beautiful. We both love to read.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Love and hugs, Anne. ♥
Nice to learn more about you. I love to read, mostly memoirs. XO
I like that nook. If I had it, I'd be like you and never come out. I like to lay on my bed to read.
I like series too, but hate waiting for that next book!
Reading is a happy thing.
When we were raising our son, I read one book a day for several years. Thinking back now, I don't know how I did it!
Those were good answers. I don't read much anymore because when I do I fall asleep after a few pages. Maybe I need to pick more exciting books LOL!
I LOVE that little library and the nook with a view!
Wonderful nook!
Its on my wishlist already for a long time.
So nice to read, stare at the clouds or just dream away.
Have a nice week!
That reading nook is pretty, but I'd need a lot ore pillows and a blanket. I started reading the Mitford Series a few years ago after my Grandma passed away. She loved them and so did my mom, who also passed away. I'm on the second one now...it's moving slower than the first so I haven't made much progress..haha.
