Book Tag

Although, I technically wasn't "tagged", I saw this on TeenRev's blog and thought it looked fun.

1. ONE BOOK that changed your life: Meeting God at a Dead End by Ron Mehl

2. ONE BOOK that you have read more than once: Love Comes Softly by Janette Oke

3. ONE BOOK that you would take on a desert island: not a fair question…I have both my Mom’s and Dad’s Bibles and would not want to leave one behind…can I count them as one if I can fit them both in one Bible case?

4. ONE BOOK that made you laugh: First Comes Love by Whitney Lyles (disclaimer: This is not necessarily the type of book I endorse. But I don’t usually laugh out loud while reading books. This one literally had me doing that and often b/c it was soooo realistic!)

5. ONE BOOK that made you cry: pick any title by Karen Kingsbury

6. ONE BOOK that you wish had never been written: Harry Potter

7. ONE BOOK you are currently reading: Good Grief by Granger E. Westberg

8. ONE BOOK you have been meaning to read: Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World by Joanna Weaver

9. The ONE BOOK you most recently finished: Julotta by Tracie Peterson

10. ONE BOOK you started but never finished: Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman (and started several times!)

Editor’s note: I read a lot of light-hearted romance novels that I didn’t include here but I never remember the titles of them and consider them “fluff reading”, as my librarian calls it :) I have had to put aside the latest Karen Kingsbury books even though I want to read those REALLY BAD!! But I just don’t think I am ready to add that emotional roller coaster of life in fiction. I have enough of that for real at the present! Didn’t want to give off a more educated or Spiritual impression than what I truly am, if that makes sense.

I read a lot of fluff reading too. Every once in a while I start feeling bad about it and read something that is actually "worth" reading. So I've started reading two different books at a time recently. The problem now is when to put down one and read the other. I've never been able to reading two or three books at a time before but I am actually enjoying it now. I get to read the fun stuff and the "challenging" stuff too. I'm so happy that my brain finally grew enough wrinkles that now I can read two books at a time and still remember what each book is about. I love to read!
