Friday Finds (February 13)
What great books have you added to your wish list this week? Share your Friday Finds at Should Be Reading.
I was poking around on Michelle Richmond’s website this week when I came across a list of publications her writing has appeared in, including When I Was a Loser: True Stories of (Barely) Surviving High School edited by John McNally. If that title wasn’t enough of a draw, here’s the title of Michelle’s essay: “Putting Out: How You (and All Your Friends) Came to Know Jesus.”
Here’s another book with an intriguing title: May and Amy: A True Story of Family, Forbidden Love, and the Secret Lives of May Gaskell, Her Daughter Amy, and Sir Edward Burne-Jones by Josceline Dimbleby. Dimbleby is May’s great-granddaughter. Read Danielle’s overview of the book on her blog, A Work in Progress.

ReplyDeleteMay and Amy looks great :-)
ReplyDeleteDimbleby tells a good story! I recommend it (though admit I am still working on it!) if the subject appeals. I love it when art and literature merge!
ReplyDeleteYou always find the best books, Avis! These both sound fantastic.
