I love reading!
Last week I was able to read 2 books. The first is Vanishing Acts by Jodi Picoult. It was about the love of a father for a daughter. The synopsis of the book below was extracted from her website.
Delia Hopkins has led a charmed life. Raised in rural New Hampshire by her widowed father, Andrew, she now has a young daughter, a handsome fiancé, and her own search-and-rescue bloodhound, which she uses to find missing persons. But as she plans her wedding, she is plagued by flashbacks of a life she can’t recall.
And when a policemen arrives to disclose a truth that will upend the world as she knows it, Delia must search through these memories – even when they have the potential to devastate her life, and the lives of those she loves most. Vanishing Acts is a book about the nature and power of memory; about what happens when the past we have been running from catches up to us… and what happens when the memory we thought had vanished returns as a threat.
These books not only provide entertainment appeals but it is educating as well. The humanity values presented were natural and it applies to everyone regardless of race and religion.
