I have mentioned here before that I love nonfiction writing. True, personal stories stick with me and intrigue me more than any type of scientific article or journal. Maybe that is why I am so addicted to blog reading and blogging. While going through the “No Baby On Board” site, I found the link to this list. There are many other fertility related reading lists as well, but this one is totally about first hand infertility.
Once again, for some reason, I’m having a problem linking today. So, to see the actual list that I’m talking about, head over to Amazon and do a search within their listmania. Type in infertility. Then a list of recommended reading lists will pop up. The list of today’s post is called, “Pesonal Stories of Infertility” by Thia G.
From the list of 14, I’ve only read 2, so I’m not too high up on the percentages of this reading list. And the two that I’ve read, I’ve enjoyed and reviewed on this blog in the past. I’m only going to put up the titles of the books that sound interesting to me right now, so if you have read one and could recommend it, please let me know.

On an adoption rather than infertility note – I am reading “All God’s Children Need Traveling Shoes” by Maya Angelou right now. It is an awesome look at her personal journey “home” to Ghana. I am getting a lot of appreciation for the perspectives our kids might have one day.
