For the last three years Peter and I have been reading the various annual editions of The Intellectual Devotional
, which we have loved. The various topics are always interesting, but I inevitably look forward to Literature day every week. What would be my 2010 Edition
is going to be all about health and wellness. Intriguing, but I think it may get bumped because I found this: The Bibliophile's Devotional: 365 Days of Literary Classics
!! I mean seriously. Does it get any better than that? I think not! Yes. I bought it. Score!! It's on my nightstand waiting impatiently for New Year's Day.
Oh. My. Gosh. I need this immediately.
ReplyDeleteBookshelf Monstrosity ~ That was my reaction completely! :-)

I'm getting it! Thank you for the post. It sounds great! One question - it isn't just for 2010 is it?
ReplyDeleteNan ~ No. The dates just read Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 with no year. We can use it over and over again! Yay! Or pass it on to the next book lover. We can only hope they make a series out of this!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
It just got added to my amazon wish list. I must have this!!
ReplyDeleteJoAnn ~ Cool! I wanted to make sure I let you all know about it as soon as I saw it. I'm betting it will be a popular item among book bloggers this holiday season!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
oh, great! This must go on the list, NOT on the stack.
ReplyDeleteAnd then I was returning a book which is overdue, to the library today and started reading it in the car before I gave it back and I really really like it.
So that goes on the list-to-stack, too! (Btw, it's OUTLIERS by Malcolm Gladwell).
GOD! i love the sound of this one!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so awesome! I've been coveting The Intellectual Devotional forever now.
ReplyDeleteOh ~ Which ones do you read first -- the list or the stack? For me, the stack would come first because those would be the books I own, the list are things I want to read but I don't have yet.
ReplyDeleteVeens ~ It's every bit as good as it sounds! It's all I can do to keep my hands off it until the beginning of the year.
Eva ~ Not to wish the year away, but I can't wait to start it. I think you would love the Intellectual Devotionals. So much information in nice bite size chunks!!
Lezlie
Very cool!!! I need to get this too!
ReplyDeleteThis does look cool!! On the wishlist it goes! :)
ReplyDeleteJenny & Amy ~ It's too bad we book bloggers can't get a discounted bulk order on this one. :-)
ReplyDeleteLezlie
Sounds very cool to me!
ReplyDeleteZetor ~ I thumbed through it just a little last night. This is going to do some severe damage to the TBR!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
We all need a copy of this one; great find.
ReplyDeleteDiane ~ Thanks! It's fun to be the "finder" for once! :-)
ReplyDeleteLezlie
Okay, I need this!
ReplyDeleteCarol's Notebook ~ I hope you get a copy! I shouldn't get to have the fun all by myself. :-)
ReplyDeleteLezlie
So, you could begin tonight! Why wait till January 1? :<)
ReplyDeleteNan ~ Oh, don't think I haven't been tempted!! :-) I'm sticking to my plan though. This year I will continue to read The Intellectual Devotional nightly, and this one will wait its turn. It's hard though!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
WOW! Never heard of this. Must do homework on it NOW.
ReplyDeleteAndi ~ I had never seen one like this either. I was thrilled when I stumbled across it!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
Must. Have. This. NOW.
ReplyDeleteZOMG! This is awesome! I am getting myself one for the new year. And I think they would make perfect xmas gifts for some of my classmates - what better treat for library students!!
ReplyDeleteMichele ~ Yup. I understand. :-)
ReplyDeleteJoanne ~ I couldn't agree more! And what a great classmate you are!
Lezlie
That's awesome. I'll have to tell my husband. He's always looking for gift ideas for me. But then again, he says he'd like to get me something other than books. Well, it's worth a try. ;)

Anna ~ While I can appreciate your husband's sentiments, mine has given up and just buys me book-related stuff. :-) It's definitely worth a try.
