#BooksIamReading

Today I am giving the  publishing advice a rest and just chatting. It's a cold, snowy day in April - yes, April. Will this winter never end? We should have leaves on the trees by now and robins should be sitting in those trees singing their cheerful notes. What the heck!!

Anyway, I've been reading instead of gardening. One book is difficult going because the subject matter is so sensitive. The title is #Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer. I can read only a few pages at a time. Read it and you will know why. Already I purchase all foods organic that I possibly can, but I will certainly be more conscious of the source of the meats that I purchase (no, I am not vegetarian and never will be). Animal farming is being forced away from its modern-day factory mode into more humane methods. Thank goodness for people like Foer.

Because #Eating Animals is heavy reading, I need something more relaxing so I'm reading a historical novel. It's very interesting yet relaxing. Whew!

Anyway, let's all keep our fingers crossed that Spring will eventually bless us.

Cheers.
