If you’re like most readers, you have a book on your nightstand. For some of us, reading is the last thing we do at night. For others, it’s the first thing we do in the morning (Okay, maybe there’s coffee first, but you know what I mean). Sometimes it’s the same book we read other places and for some of us, it’s a nightstand specific choice.
A random sampling of coworkers gave me this list of current books on nightstands:
- The Wind Through the Keyhole by Stephen King
- Thunder Heights by Phyllis Whitney
- The Cove by Ron Rash
- There Is No Dog by Meg Rosoff
- Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed
- Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore
- Mansfield Park by Jane Austen
Me? I always have one book that I read only at night before I fall asleep. Right now, I’m reading Cat’s Claw by Susan Wittig Albert; it’s one of her Pecan Springs mysteries.
And you? What’s on your nightstand?
The Twilight Warriors by Robert Gandt. It’s a historically gripping account of the battle for Okinawa and the battles leading up to it in 1944. The last couple books on the nightstand have been the same genre; I guess you could call me a history buff. ;o)
