Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/12/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	Great concept, Jabber! I really enjoyed Lynn's book, even though she is dealing with a painful subject. It's been several years since I read it. But I recall writing a review for NABBW which I'll share to encourage others here to also read this book. There was physical and emotional abuse in my family when I was growing up. And also in the families of many others I know. It's high time we talk about this shameful subject. As for my book, Activate Your Breakthrough, it's been awhile since I wrote it. But the success principles I outlined are still just as effective today as they were when I developed them in order to train people on business startup, back when I was coaching. I hope you enjoy it, Jabber! _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Well I'm several chapters into Lynn's book, just pass where she has to put her horse down, is selling that country acreage purchased with her trust fund, etc. This is an excellent read. The heart goes out to Lynn, however. Gosh, what some people don't go through is unbelievable. Sorry you went through abuse, too, Anne. It isn't funny. I survived child abuse but not at the hands of my adoptive family. They were wonderful and I thank the Good Lord for them everyday. Will get to your book, Anne, soon as I finish this one. Been reading everything in sight, trying to train myself to catch typographical and structural errors. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Finished Lynn's book; it's inspiring. Makes a person wonder how many abused females there are in the world. And it's sad some folks' just can't let other folks' enjoy their life. On the other hand, it's good to know people can survive abuse and thrive after going through all the misery. Prayers and blessing to everybody. Am now reading Anne's book. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Read "Activate Your Breakthrough" Anne. Surround yourself with [super friends] and [make your mess your message] are what I took away from it. I like positive encouragement and enjoyed the book. Prayers and blessings to all involved. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Sandy N. Registered: 12/23/10 Posts: 201 Loc: Washington State	I've been away from this forum for too long! But recently I read an excellent Boomer book and thought this group would be interested. The book is A SLIGHT CHANGE OF PLAN and the author is Dee Ernst. The story is so funny! I gave it a 5-star review. The book is available in ebook formats and paperback too. Here's the Amazon link where you can see the synopsis: A Slight Change of Plan _________________________ Sandy Nachlinger, author of BLUEBONNETS FOR ELLY; co-author with Sandra Allen of I.O.U.

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Today I finished reading Charles Krauthammer's book, "Things That Matter." It's a compilation of almost thirty years of columns he's written for various newspapers like The Washington Post. He's smart. And some of his reports are heavy. But I enjoyed his optimism about the future of America. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	I know this says "boomer books"; but since no one is commenting in this thread, thought I'd take a poll. Have any of you read Agatha Christie's "A Murder Is Announced"? This read fascinates me. And then I ask, have any of you read, Maya Angelou's, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings"? This title alone fascinates me. What say you??? _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

yonuh Member Registered: 06/14/06 Posts: 2447 Loc: Arizona	I have read all of Maya Angelou's work at some point in my life. And I have read a lot of Agatha Christie stuff. Right now, I'm marking time waiting for Book 8 of the Outlander series coming on June 10th. I've had it on pre-order since I don't remember when. :-) _________________________ Well-behaved women rarely make history. - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich http://ruthrainwater.wordpress.com/ http://newbeginningsgratitudejournal.wordpress.com/ http://sablewings.wordpress.com/

Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/12/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	Jabber, I've read a ton of Agatha Christie's stuff, but not in about 10 years. So I don't remember too much of any plots. Only that I always enjoyed her work. To the best of my recollection, I have not read any of Maya Angelou's work. Don't know why, I have not been avoiding it. Just a case of too many books, not enough time, I believe. _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com
