FRIDAY FINDS showcases the books you ‘found’ and added to your To Be Read (TBR) list. Whether you found them online, or in a bookstore, or in the library — wherever! (they aren’t necessarily books you purchased).
This book, along with the other book on the subject of Bob Dylan, were loaned to me by a participant in my Creative Therapy group. These books assisted him on his recovery journey and hoped to pass on the favour to me. I shall keep you informed once I’ve read them.
I found these books by Peter May at a library sale a couple of months ago. They are crime fiction based on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. No prizes for knowing why I’d like to read these! :p
Yes, I am still an insomniac. I’m hoping that this book may provide me with insight (and perhaps a few tips) on getting a better night’s sleep!
See “Bob Dylan: Chronicles” for more information on why this book is on my TBR list.
This book was recommended to me by my support worker at Gateway. Apparently it is a hugely inspirational story. I shall let you know if it affects me once I’ve gotten around to reading it.
Audrey found this in an op-shop today and we struck a bargain so that I’d buy it for her. She (and I) are huge fans of DeLillo’s work and this is one we’ve never read before.
A classic study that I’ve been meaning to read for quite some time…rendered easier after finding a dog-eared copy in a local charity shop! :)
This book is used regularly in the Hearing Voices Support Group I attend and is oft-cited by members of the Hearing Voices Movements as being a rich and wonderful resource for people on their recovery journey.
Having already polished off ‘The Happiness Trap’ and ‘The Reality Slap’, it only stands to reason that I want to read Russ Harris’ ‘The Confidence Gap’ as I continue my journey with ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

I downloaded about a dozen books from the library and have enjoyed reading snippets of them without the pressure to read them straight through. I have particularly enjoyed Thomas Merton’s “Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander.” I highly recommend it.

I have not read any books about Bob Dylan but his music has been a part of my life since I was about 10 yrs old. The words he uses and stories he tells in his songs are just superb.
