Five on Friday: Good Reads

I have become a little bit of a bookworm lately. Hardback, paperback, e-book...there is something I love about each of them! I love the feel of a hardback or paperback but the e-book is amazing during times of insomnia.  I love the black background with the white letters.  I can read at 2am without bothering anyone. What do you prefer? Old fashioned books or reading on a tablet? What is your favorite book? I have included my favorite books (read in the past four months) from 5 different genres.  Mystery and suspense used to be my favorite type of book but lately I have been obsessed with historical fiction. 

Many thanks to my well-read friends Laura & Virginia for their recommendations (hop over and check out Virginia's gorgeous new site Edit by Virginia).

    1. I know...I have just gotten into them lately. It's so interesting to read about people that lived so long before us but had such similar lives.

    1. I love them! Hard to pick on over the other but The Glass Castle is great and you may be familiar with the author. Google her!
