Good Morning!
I did a quick workout at Curves to prepare for a day of reading and then snuggled in with Orange Mint and Honey by Carlene Brice. This read a thon is giving me a rare opportunity to talk about a few works of adult lit! Suggestions to get us through this challenge included reading short, quick to read books so that we feel like we’re accomplishing something. Well, Orange Mind and Honey is not short and I don’t want to make it quick! I want to savor every word of this book; it is so well written! Brice’s descriptions alert your mind to just where she wants to take you. I want to wear a shirt that says “WWNSD?”. I want to evoke a goddess of inspiration! I want one more chance to talk with my own mom. I don’t know if I want to see what Lifetime does to this book when they make the movie. This is a book I don’t want to end!
I pulled out the laptop to listen to some of the jazz artists Oliver is mentioning, visited the 24HR Challenge homepage and marked myself on the map! Now…back to the book…

Such a great morning here in South Alabama, just the perfect time to grab that cup of coffee and read, read, read!!! So keep up the great reading and enjoy!!!
