Memoirs - Stories of the Living
I seem to have been drawn to many memoirs this year, all alive and ever inspiring. I have 5 books to recommend. Two for their wild lives as famous artists, and three for a peek into a different culture. All books have themes of perseverance, hard earned life lessons, courage, words to live by, and inspiration, all told in the first person. I listened to all of these except for the last one. The beauty of audiobooks is getting to “read” so many books while walking. So if you want more exercise and reading, get an audiobook and get walking! A good book and a beautiful walk may be one of the best parts of your day. It’s definitely a highlight of mine.
Non Fiction Favorites
Yes, I have strayed away from my paradoxical love of baking, offering book suggestions rather than recipes. But here’s an exercise tip! I listened to all of these as audio books while walking, so you don’t even have to sit around to read. I walk a lot, therefore I “read” a lot! You can get your exercise on and book in too! Although it still seems like a time to escape reality with fiction, these books stimulate and inspire. They make great gifts as well!
