summer reading

Bravehearts, by Sharon A. Hersh - Not completed.
Like I said, I just couldn't get through it. Perhaps I'll come back to it when I've read all the rest.

The Scarlet Thread, by Francine Rivers - Finished.
Good, I did read it in two days. The Last Sin Eater is far above my favorite of her novels.

Becoming A Woman of Prayer, by Cynthia Heald - In progress.
One of those things where I feel like it's nothing I haven't heard before but just reading it again will help put it into my memory some more, perhaps.

True Grit: Women Taking on the World, for God's Sake, by Deborah Meroff (Operation Mobilisation) - In progress.
Excellent. Each chapter is a story of a woman's life when she puts herself into the hands of God. Very revealing of real people who struggle, sin, and find hope in the grace and love of God. Makes me want to live for Him too.

Epicenter: Why the Current Rumblings in the Middle East Will Change Your Future, by Joel C. Rosenberg - In progress.
Two nights ago Dad and I were having good conversation and one of the things that we brought up was Christ's soon return - Praise Him! The next morning I received a reply from one of my professor's in response to me asking him for some summer reading suggestions. This was one of the books. I went to amazon.com to look at it... and ended up reading the first chapter online. A few hours later I was in B&N reading more, purchasing it, and now I'm getting even further. I think it's funny how God has me reading True Grit at the same time.

A Love Worth Giving, by Max Lucado - In progress.
I wouldn't have started another book but I got it from the church library so I thought I would return it asap. Yeah, couldn't put it down last night until my eye lids could not stay open anymore. My professor had suggested a different Max Lucado book but I couldn't find that one in the library and this one looked interesting. I haven't read anything by him before.

When I returned home from the beach yesterday afternoon, I found my box from B&N. I have four more books that I can't wait to read - two that I had written down names from Donna's (my boss) bookshelf, one that I saw in a magazine, and another suggestion from a different professor.

This is going to be fun. :o)
