Thoughtful Thursday - September 17, 2009

The wonderful world of books enriches our lives by giving us the opportunity to experience, well pretty much anything one can imagine! We can be transported to a new time or place, experience pure joy or extreme sadness, become a president or a slave etc. etc.

********************************************************************************

This week I read The White Queen by Philippa Gregory. I was back in the 15th century living the life of a beautiful queen BUT in a constant struggle to stay Queen and keep her family safe. Maybe having a knight in shining armour isn't "happily ever after" after all!

Now I'm reading The Atlantis Revelation by Thomas Greanias. I am being hunted by assassins, dealing with secret societies & politicians while trying to recover an weapon (with origins linked to Atlantis) that has the potential to destroy the world. It makes me wonder just how powerful secret socities really are!
