Not exactly "for fun" reading. :sorry: At least it's been really good so far.

Finished reading "Life Stories" by David Attenborough, a brilliant read!. I also finished the worst book that I have ever read, it was trashy, crude, and there was no climax. It is called "Are you there Vodka, it is me Chelsea?". My friend lent it to me and it is not my type of book at all but I read it out of plain boredom and courtesy.

I am now enjoying "First Life" by David Attenborough.

Random assortment of stuff from half.com and the library as usual:

-Masaccio
-Correggio
-The World of Goya
-Cerebus The Aardvark (finally resolved to finish this 6k page monster)
-Early American History

I've also been using my jumbo-phone book Matthew Henry commentary to aid a reading of Job I was doing recently. Got sidetracked in Paul's letters, though...

I just started reading Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton.

Your going to LOOOOVE this book! I read it last year. It is one of my favorite books and I hope to read more books by this author.


In other news, I started book of Isaiah in the bible. Millions of textbooks...I think I could start, The Known World by Edward P. Jones.

You're absolutely right! I've read about 50 pages and... wow! I've never read anyone like Chesterton before. He's really helping me to love God with my heart (rather than just my mind). Heck, he's making me realise I even have a heart. Awesome! Just awesome. :thumbsup:
