Welcome to Twitterature, June 2014 edition… A link-up where we talk about what we are reading (or in this case, what I am reading as this is my blog) this month, twitter style (in 140 characters or less). For a MUCH better description, head over here to Modern Mrs. Darcy’s…
Delancey by Molly Wizenberg…
Loving her first book deeply, I waited ages for this book & it didn’t disappoint! Food, business, dreams, marriage and raw honesty. Delightful!
I Don’t Know What You Know Me From by Judy Greer
Sometimes snarky, very witty and pretty down to earth, this memoir is like meeting a fun friend!
How Lucky You Are by Kristyn Kusek Lewis
Wasn’t a fan of this book. Didn’t like the characters, their motives, their relationships… {book about dysfunction in relationships, but it sort of stays that way.}
A Loving Life by Paul E. Miller
Book club pick. Not finished with it yet, but through the story of Ruth & Naomi I’m learning a lot about real love.
Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo
Also a book club pick. Non-fiction, haunting & poetic reporting about Mumbai and the growth & change and the unseen. Tragic and amazing…
Pursue the Intentional Life by Jean Fleming
Learning to live meaningfully and intentionally. Something I feel like I’ll always say I need. Written with amazing energy, an easy and inspiring read!
What about you? Reading anything amazing?

Oooh! Fabulous reviews! I’ve been meaning to read Delancey and Pursue the Intentional Life, and the one by Judy Greer looks great, too! I’ll be adding them to my GoodReads list for sure. :) Happy reading!
I love a book list. I wrote down Behind the Beautiful Forever and Pursue the Intentional Life. They look really interesting. Thanks!
Pursue the intentional life sounds good
i just started “behind the beautiful forevers” yesterday on audiobook! it’s been on my TBR for a while, but i’m trying to plow through “the goldfinch” before it’s due at the library. really enjoying it so far!

I’ve been looking for acting memoirs. Thanks for the tip! (over from the Twitterature link up)
It doesn’t deal with that too much, but a little…
Confession: I’ve checked Behind the Beautiful Forevers out of the library at least twice and have returned it at least twice, unread. Thanks for the encouragement to try again–and actually read it this time!
