I loved Water for Elephants...and the ending was one of my favorite endings to a book!

Recently finished, Paths of Glory by Jeffery Archer (a new author for me) and found I didn't want it to end. It is about a group of men in the 1920s who want to climb Mt. Everest.

I read at least 1 book per week...sometimes more, between quilting! My most favorite book I read recently is "The Lost Quilter" by Jennifer Chiavernni. It's part of the Elm Creek Quilts Series, but each book can stand alone. The trouble with Jennifer's books is that they are not available everywhere. I buy them at Barnes and Noble Bookstore and read on my Nook. Check the inter-net.

Gladys, have you read her Cedar Cove Series ? Where each book title is an address. I loved that series.
