Since my brightmeadowfarms logo includes a goldfinch, I was curious about this book when I saw it was on the bestseller list. A goldfinch is a German symbol of luck. But since the goldfinch in the work of art that is the book title, is chained to its perch, I haven't yet taken the time to read the book.
I am sure it is full of symbolism.
I just like the "white bird, in a golden cage, on a winter's day, in the rain" song by ITS A BEAUTIFUL DAY and I am so happy this song is available on YouTube.
Of course the Goldfinch is not a white bird...
You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands - You shall be happy and it shall be well with you. -Psalm 128.2

What's the book about? Just curious and too lazy to look it up...
Always be joyful; never stop praying; be thankful in all circumstances.

I miss Downton Abbey.....a lot! This is in reply to Debbie above. Doesn't it seem like it was the shortest season ever? Nancy Jo, I hope you enjoy your book and also begin to see a hint of spring up your way!
P.S. you really shouldn't tear up your book covers....did you not learn how to treat them? teehee

Wow Nancy 800 pages...that is a commitment!! LOL I could never hold a book that big either.
That is why I use a Kindle Fire HDX (light weight).
Let us know what you think. I always like a good book recommendation.

Looks like a very interesting book Nancy Jo I will have to check it out.
Do you miss Downton Abbey? I sure do, can not wait for the new season to start.
More cold and snow for us too tomorrow, GRRR! I want spring too, although we sure need the moisture.
Have a beautiful day.
Hugs,
Debbie
