3 Books I Recently Read

Recently, I read three really great books and I wanted to share them with you. I like to read a books for various reasons, so I am constantly reading books from different genres. These 3 are books I think you will also enjoy, but other than these my recent reads include a book about mathematical functions and another book about thinking outside the box.

Lilly: Palm Beach, Tropical Glamour, and the Birth of a Fashion Icon: This book offers insight into the life of Lilly Pulitzer. It was very interesting to learn more about her life and the ups and downs of her business. Plus I loved all of the photos.

I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban: This inspiration memoir about Malala, who was brave enough to fight for her right to an education was wonderful. It was also touching that in a place that valued sons more, her father also fought for her rights. Loved this book.

Etiquette & Espionage: I picked this up for a light and fun read and I was not disappointed. I absolutely loved the main character Sophronia and read exploits!

Tracy and I thought that we would start occasionally sharing our current reads with you. At the moment I am reading the books below:

A Beginner's Guide to Tarot - Sizzling Sixteen by Janet Evanovich - Cupcakes and Cashmere - 100 Years of Fashion Cupcakes and Cashmere was one of the first blogs that I started reading, so of course I had to buy the book. Now, I am finally finding the time to read it. Like I already mentioned 100 Years of Fashion was a gift from my best friend. I have enjoyed looking through this book so much because it has beautiful pictures and spectacular quotes. It is a huge book though, so in my spare time I pick it up and read a section and then put it down for another day. Recently I decided that I wanted to learn Tarot. So I bought a deck of Tarot cards and picked up a beginners guide. I have read through the whole book already, but I am constantly pulling it out and looking up a few cards at a time to remember their meanings better. As for the Janet Evanovich book, I am a huge lover of all things mystery. I started the Stephanie Plum series and bought 20 Evanovich books, hard cover, on ebay for like $28. An amazing deal, because they all look brand new.
What are you currently reading or getting ready to read? I am planning on getting my hands on some of the following for my next reads.
