Three Books


Hi friends.  Happy August to you. Thought this week I'd share three books I am in the process of reading. 

As many of you know for me August is my slow down month.  I seek a shady spot, a cool drink and something good to read.     

Billy Showell's " Botanical Painting in Watercolor" is one that is being revisited.  Her botanical paintings are beautiful.  She is very generous in sharing her colors and techniques.  This book is not only informative but lovely to page through.


"Dandelion Summer" is the second book on my list.  Lisa Wingate is a new author for me. 

 Our local librarian recommended her and said this book was wonderful.  Thus far I have found it to be so.  Am only through the first few chapters but the story has me hooked. 

 It takes place in Dallas, Texas with a widowed older gentleman and a teenager living in a sad environment.  There is a bit of mystery that will keep one turning the page. 



The last book being shared is "Shelter in God".

Dr. David Jeremiah wrote this during the pandemic.   It is an exploration of several psalms and how David found comfort and shelter in God.

I have always enjoyed the writings of Dr. Jeremiah and this one is no exception.  Very appropriate not only for the times we are living in but on a personal level as well.  I would highly recommend this one.


Well dear ones I am off to my shady spot.  If any of you are reading something worthwhile...hope you will share it.  Until next week...God Bless.

Hugs
