Golden Threads and Silver Needles: Day 3-Preparing for Thanksgiving

Who needs Martha!

My Reading List

I rate the books I read based on my ability to remember the characters and the story lines. Some of these books I read just to clear my mind and that maybe part of why I don't remember them either. Most of you probably know that I do the biggest part of my reading via audio books otherwise this years reading list would be maybe 3 or 4 books.
