[Jecosan Tarres]

* Jeco is back after disappearing because of the server crash, and he wants to join Third Person Books again.

 

[paulewog]

/me says hello to him and asks if he's read any, er, good books lately.

 

[Jecosan Tarres]

*Jeco has read a great book - Byzantium by Stephen Lawhead.

Thumbs up!

 

[paulewog]

/me asks what it is about

 

[Jecosan Tarres]

It is about a young Irish monk, Aidan, who goes on a pilgrimage to Byzantium together with 13 other monks to deliver a very costly gift to the emperor. Their ship gets attacked by Vikings, and Aidan is captured. That is just the beginning of his story. He stays with the Danes (vikings), then goes with them to the very same city that was his original destination - Byzantium - only the vikings are planning to plunder it, and Aidan serves as the king's interpreter. It's a long book, and it is well worth reading!

 

[paulewog]

/me will try to remember to look for it at his library

 

[onecrazycowgirl]

/me thinks it sounds good, and if she can remember the title long enough to place a hold on it, then she will

/me is currently reading a book on leadership, that her camp director wanted all the counselors to read before August - it's the one by Rudy Giulani, or however you spell that

 

[AngelAmidala]

/me gasps

/me would love to read the book by Rudy Giuliani!

 

[paulewog]

/me read some leadership book, they went through it as a class (the high schoolers in his youth group), but he forgot what it was..

 

[onecrazycowgirl]

/me has done a couple 'leadership classes' but thinks the book she's reading is better than the classes

/me thinks leading is a lot of work, and sometimes wouldn't mind just being an ignorer-of-everybody-else-with-no-leader-or-followers, or even just a follower

 

[paulewog]

/me says that it was a leadership class that went *through* a book.... the "class" part was just a time to discuss the book and such.

 

[onecrazycowgirl]

/me 's leadership classes were like that, but the teacher added to and exposiated upon the book

/me thinks Komet's a good leader when he's pulling the cart
