Bless you and your mom and your family. I love anything by Nora Roberts, Nelson Demille, Clive Cussler, Dan Brown, and Dorthea Venting Frank. Would also recommend Jan Karon's Mitford series.

Stranger in a Strange Land - Robert Heinlen (sp?)
Ishmael - Daniel Quinn Both made me re-think the way I look at human beings and the world. |
The Help, and The winter Garden, and Forgotten Garden. Don't know the authors but all good and you can look a lot of books up just by the title.

They are borderline raunchy, a lot of fantasy, and - for some of us - laugh out loud, roll on the floor funny. They will either amuse you a lot - or be a total turn off. |
M. C. Beaton (Agatha Raisin and Hamish MacBeth series)
Sandra Dallas Sara Gruen (Water for Elephants) "Sarah's Key" Jan Karon Jill Conner Browne -- really irreverant, laugh out loud Go to http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/ once you find an author you like to find others by him/her, or similar books by other authors. You'll never run out of books to read or listen to. |
If you don't have one pick up a larger print New International Version (NIV) or another easy to red bible. Why- encouragement. I do story telling for our church and everything from history to drama to love sotries deciet murder redemption are right there.

Price And Prejudice by Jane Austen. There's a reason it's been popular for over 100 years!

I understand completely what you are going through. My grandma had Parkinson's Disease and I used to stay with her. I love to read however my life is a busy one so I like to read books that are easy to put down and pick up again. Here are my favorite authors:
Rosamund Pilcher, James Patterson, Nora Roberts, Susan Wiggs, Diana Gabaldon, Sara Donati, Kristen Hannah, J.A. Jance, David & Aimee Thurlo, Robyn Carr, Sheryl Woods, Sue Henry, Luanne Rice. Some of these are mystery, some are romance, some are historical fiction. Love these authors. |
