But first...

I have lots of Mother's Day photos to show you, but they have to wait until tomorrow.

I have a few updated pictures of my garden, but those have to wait, too.

I have been taken hostage by a story, and I want you to be, too.

Have you heard of Katie Davis?  I don't want to give away too much, but let's say she is 23 years old and she is changing the world.

Take a minute to watch this video, and if you are hooked, come back--because there's more.

She has written a book, and as soon as I'm finished reading her whole blog, I'm going in for the book.

And I want you to read it with me!  I want to start it next week, and discuss it as a group at the end of the month, here on the Lasso blog.  If you are interested in joining me, let me know in the comments. 

Also, for those of you who leave a comment, I'm going to have a drawing on Friday for a copy of the book.  On Friday at noon, I will draw a name from the comments and that happy person will win a free copy of Katie's book!  From me, because I want you to read it with me that bad.

If you'd like to go ahead and order your copy, you can get it here or here or even here!  If you win the drawing, you can always give one of the copies to a friend and make our book circle even bigger.

So go ahead, leave a comment (with your email address listed) and then share this post with a friend so she can join us, too!
