early bird

for those of you who actually read this blog you get to find out early what we will be reading for november. it is my turn to pick for november and i had a terrible time choosing because there are so many good reads out there. i am checking out sarah's key by tatiana de rosnay. i picked up this book at the store and couldn't put it down until the next day when i was finished. it is both world war 2 and modern day. it is the story of sarah and what happens to her and her family during the jewish round up during that time. it takes place mostly in france which is interesting to get that perspective. this is a fiction book however there are historical elements to it. slightly sad, but i felt peace with the story. it made me feel gratitude for all i am blessed with and the freedoms i have, especially to worship and be as we are. so i hope you enjoy and until then happy reading!!
