Day 4 - My Favorite Book

Enjoying a good book seems like such a luxury, since having children. I really really enjoy reading...but a book has to immediately grab me, or I can take years to finish it. If it is a great read--I usually finish it within a week or so.

I don't believe I have one particular favorite (at least, not yet!), but here are a few I have enjoyed lately:

A Train to Potevka
It is a true story about an LDS man on an US intelligence mission, who is hunted by the Russian Mafia. It's his amazing story of survival!)
Sarah's Key
A story about a survival of a girl caught in the Paris roundups during WWII. I learned a lot, but I was disappointed that the actual storyline wasn't based on any true person/event. Of course--the general events DID happen...so it was very intriguing!

I have that book! I actually really liked it, except that it was so sad.
