As If I don't have enough on my plate already, now I want to read a truck load of new titles! :) I started keeping a list of what books I read in the year. In 2017 I read: "Unbroken" by Laura Hillenbrand, "Desperate" by Sally Clarkson & Sarah Mae, "You are What you Love", "Barrie & Daughter" by Rebecca Caudill, and "Kisses from Katie" by Katie Davis (just finished, churns my heart for overseas missions all over again!). May be missing one or two since I don't have my list on hand. Mostly lighter reads intermixed with CM's Vol. 1 & Vol. 4 as I don't feel I have brain space for too much these days.

I guess the logo will have the swallow or maybe the humble rushes in it. :) What a wonderful bunch of events spreading the CM love and hope.

Plus, her writing is beautiful and the spiritual aspect, depending on how you look at it, was...well, I'll let you read it. Her description of the Native American village was gripping to me. I will skip over to your list later today!

I also am curious about Being Mortal, as well as DeYoung's Crazy Busy. Thanks again for inspiring me to read more, to be a better teacher, and to gather my titles together!

While we're listening to Picts & Martyrs in the car they still pop in the previous books into the CD player in the house. :)<br /><br />I think you will enjoy Island of the World, and I base that on your appreciation of the book Silence. Island, too, is a very hard book, but oh so worth it. It has been more than 10 months since I finished it, and I still am impressed by the author's ability to impress on the reader the sanctity of life at all stages and in many different circumstances. There is a definite sense of respecting personhood threaded throughout the book. It is definitely worth the read!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06255732394849264954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-241960203289083167.post-1783565862444226172018-01-01T13:26:34.246-08:002018-01-01T13:26:34.246-08:00Thanks for always inspiring me!

As I look back I had a heavy fiction year, my favorites of which were Island of the World, Brideshead Revisited, The Moonstone, and Gilead. I also loved Don Quixote, although this was an audiobook rather than an official read. I also completed by first Dostoyevsky - Brothers Karamazov - and enjoyed it. My favorite non-fiction was the Martin Luther's A Simple Way to Pray. I have also very much enjoyed Twelve Ways Your Phone is Changing You, but will not finish it in 2017. Finally, as a family it was the year of Swallows and Amazons, as you well know.:) We finished 9 of the series as audiobooks in the car this year, and began the 11th in the series this week. While some series become tiring as they continue on, we never tire of the adventures of Captain Nancy and the rest of the crew.
