What I'm Reading

It has been a while since I have updated my "reading" posts. I have read a few books, but the most interesting has been The Boy in the Alamo by Margaret Cousins. I had intended to read it before I visited the Alamo, but didn't get around to it. I did read it right after we got home and enjoyed it even more than I thought I would. It was great to have a picture in my head of all the structures and history that they talked about in the book. While this book is classified as fiction, it is heavy on actual history and great learning tool. I know all you Texans out there are familiar with this time period, but for a Mississippi girl like me, this was a great chance to learn some wonderful history about the Republic of Texas!
