Hi Linda,Yes I read The Shack. I liked it and found it to be an interesting perspective on God/Jesus/Holy Spirit. I guess we always think God is a white male with a long white beard. Won't we be surprised when we meet God face to face some day? I was looking at your book These is my Words. Looks like a book I would LOVE to read.I can't figure out how to turn my picture up and down, so I may have to put on a new one.
Linda-I saw on your shelf that you had read Sarah's Quilt about Sarah Prine - have you read *These is My Words*? That's the first in the series, and the one I liked the best. *Sarah's Quilt* was next, and then *Star Garden*, I think. I saw also that you read a few books about Jimmy Carter. I just got something about "an hour before daylight" or something like that about his boyhood. Have you read/heard about it?
I enjoy non-fiction books depending on the subject matter, but I never pay much attention to book lists. I get most of my recommendations from my friends and sisters and only one of them reads very many non-fiction. She loves English history about the kings of old and I don't necessarily. She is the one who got me to read John Adams and 1776 though. I liked the first and found 1776 way too dry so only read about half of it. I need to pay more attention when I go to the library. We don't take the newspaper or any magazines except a church magazine which doesn't have any advertisements in it.
What led you to the book? Was it on a book list? I guess I never go looking for non-fiction books. I should look for more than I am interested in and read them.
Linda,I made it half way through the book "The Ghost Map." His descriptions are very vivid and so is my imagination so between the two of them I just kept gagging while I was reading. I decided that even though it is very interesting and I would like to know how they got the water system cleaned up, I had to quit reading it. I'm a wimp, I guess.
