This is my first post from my phone, hope it works. This was a great book, much better than I expected! I have read some dry long nonfiction about Africa that feels like a duty more than a pleasure. But this book I couldn’t put down! (Well unless a child was screaming or something and […]

The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver
This was sort of one last chance for Barbara Kingsolver for me. I loved The Poisonwood Bible and then didn’t love Flight Behavior as one of my more recent posts explains. For me, this was more like the Poisonwood Bible. Not sure where the other book came from- written differently and completely different tone it […]

Love Does by Bob Goff
This book was fantastic. It was very inspiring to do love better. The author, Bob Goff, has a pretty amazing life, but writes about it in a refreshingly mundane way- in a way that makes you *almost* think you can also fly around the world and do some pretty awesome things. Or have a […]

This book has been somewhat popular recently I think. It is nonfiction, hence it took me a bit longer to get through. It is about the building and celebration of the World’s Fair in Chicago in the 1890s. Jeff and I were just thinking about the World’s Fair when we were in Memphis- at some […]

Forgotten God by Francis Chan
It was time for some Francis Chan. It’s been awhile since we read Crazy Love. That book was about our relationship with God. This book is about our relationship with the Holy Spirit. I had high hopes going in to it- expected to get my spiritual butt kicked yet again. Maybe I set my expectations […]

The last book of my reading tirade. Just trying to stay up on my one book/month average and that 670 pager and boards got me behind! So, as I mentioned this one was one with real pages and binding and all that literary greatness. Except that’s about where the literary greatness of this book ended. […]

I was busy reading this last week because we went on vacation! Lots of sun and sand in Marco Island, FL. I actually read this book and the one I will post next (The Late, Lamented Molly Marx) at the same time because this one was on the kindle on the ipad but I didn’t […]
