These Precious Days by Ann Patchett

Wandering the local bookstore this week, my eyes paused on the bookshelf of inspirational books.?

Ann Patchett?and her new book titled - ‘These Precious Days’, sat before me. I would never consider her to be an author of such writing, after having finished her last book -?‘The Dutch House’.?This, incidentally, was just awesome!?I was up for a bit more of her work, after having spent a very quiet Christmas and New Year at home, with not even the dog.?Sad, I know…

Anyhow, given all the support I could see on the back cover of the book -?The Guardian,?Gillian Anderson,?The Observer, Jojo Moyes?and even?Indian Knight?from the?Sunday Times?had appeared to truly enjoy the book, no end. So, I opened my wallet, took out the good old plastic, and marched up to the counter to pay for it, there and then.?Trust me, I wasn’t in the store any longer than 3 minutes – Yes!?I was a girl on a mission.

Now, have I read it yet? No… not yet.?I plan to do it, this week; I’ll get back to you on what I thought.???In the meantime, you might want to join me on the read.?Pick up a copy for yourselves, at your favourite bookstore and we can share thoughts.

Talk soon! Happy reading!

P.S. Sooki Raphael has done the illustration – looks soo…good!
