Welcome..

So every once in awhile I'll ask for some good reading suggestions on my FB status and I've also seen a few of my other friends do so as well. I always get excited to share my latest read with fellow bookworms. And I got to thinking wouldn't it be great if I had a place to go to where I could have a virtual book club type of experience. I've been saying it for awhile now, so tonight I decided I would start one myself. Thus, Bluestockings is born!

For anyone who may be wondering, bluestockings is a slang term that dates back to the 1600's and is used to describe educated, intellectual women. Perfect! You can read more about it here if you're interested: Bluestockings Definition

I'm going to use this spot as a place to share and recommend my favorite reads and discuss them with all my friends who have read them as well. I want suggestions of new books. I have a vast variety of reading interests, so I'll be happy to have any titles you love thrown my way. It'll be a great way for the readers in my life to connect, which excites me so much since I've got friends and family all over the country!
So this is where I want to start, what books are you reading and loving these days?

  1. hello!
    i love the concept of this blog; i'll be sure to keep it stashed away in my favorites for future reads.

    i just finished one of my favorite books of all times, one i now consider a dear friend: Hind's Feet on High Places. it is an allegory our journey with God (the Great Shepherd), featuring the main character, Much Afraid, and her two traveling companions, Sorrow and Suffering. i know it sounds strange, but it is so beautiful.

  3. Hind's Feet on High Places. Hmmm, sounds very intriguing. I'll definitely put that towards the top of my list.
