Feeling the Need, the Need to Read

What does one do during the winter months of coldness and early darkness here in New England?  Read of course, and read I did as I have the past several winters.  (Don't believe me.  See posts from the Spring months of the previous years.)

Below are the books that have been read from November through the writing of this blog.

The Amish Way
The History of Block Island
The Real Mystery of Block Island
New England Outpost:  War and Society in Colonial Deerfield
The Redeemed Captive Returning to Zion
The Unredeemed Captive
The Big Burn - America's Worst Forest Fire
The Summer of 1787 - The Men who Invented the Constitution

If you are a studious follower of this blog, you will see a common theme to all these books except one.  What is it?   Stay tuned or make your guesses.

Common Theme:

Guess #1:Books that you are likely the only person to have read.

Guess #2:Books that I would have quit reading after page 1.

Guess #3:They were all best-sellers on the AARP charts.

Are they books related to where you and Tammy visited on your many excursions now that you are empty nesters?

Well Chuck she has won the books you read because nobody else wants them.

Shipping & handling charges do apply.
