Book Blogger Hop 7/23

Sarah (My World of Books)
In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and find new book-related blogs that we may be missing out on! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs that they may not know existed!Question:
Tell me about the book you are currently reading!
Answer:
I am currently reading a few of books!
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott: I am reading this book because I won The Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott by Kelly O'Conner McNees. I started reading this book when I was younger, but I never finished it.
F*ck it by John Parkin: I am really enjoying this novel. I usually don't read self-help books, but the title caught my attention. Basically, John wants us to say F*ck It to all the varying things that stress us out. If we didn't care so much about them, we could save ourselves a lot of stress. I am about 63% into the novel.
Presumed Dead by Shirley Well: I just started reading this so I don't know much about it yet, but it is going good so far!

Book Description:
Leslie Michaels is a visionary, and only those close to her know of her special gift and the visions that come when her mind and body surrender to sleep. Fate has a way of righting many wrongs, and for Leslie it is a destiny that changes her life dramatically. But not before she is forced to flee into the wilderness to escape a murderous trapper bent on claiming her for his very own. Faith and a strong will to survive are her only companions, until she encounters Winnokin, the handsome Seneca war chief who first came to her in her dreams. Not only does he prove to be her rescuer and protector, he teaches her that tragedy can breed happiness and the passion to live and love deeply once again.
Wind Warrior plunges readers into the intimate depths of a relationship that unfolds like a live drama before their eyes while painting an insightful and intriguing portrait of Native Indian life in the 1800s. It is a story of longing, of a wanton need to survive all odds, and a love so strong it conquers human evil. Wind Warrior expresses with cunning words the simple, raw human emotions that hold readers spellbound and captivate their hearts.

Hi Sarah,
I'm hopping by as part of the hop. Glad to see that you're promoting Emma Michael's Thirteenth Chime. I featured her in an interview a couple of weeks back. The cover of the book is awesome - I can't wait to read it.
Hopping through. I didn't like Little Women as a kid. I read it as a few years ago and liked it a lot better but hated the ending.
Yes it's Monday Night! Since I'm in here watching WWE Monday Night - I thought I would visit the websites I didn't get to this weekend.
I also have 'Little Women' the older hardcover version - but am ashamed I haven't read it yet.
Blessed Be ~ Tresa
