Quote from: Andrew Peterson's The God of the Garden
What I'm Reading Currently:
Fiction: Nothing right now. I recently finished Anthony Doerr's latest, Cloud Cuckoo Land. It's a monster at nearly 700 pages and I had a book hangover (it's a real thing, I'm sure of it) after finishing. I didn't love it as much as I did All the Light We Cannot See, but there's no doubt that he's an excellent writer.
Nonfiction: Powers of Two by Joshua Wolf Shenk. This is FANTASTIC. I am still loving every bit.
Bible: I'm almost all the way through the American Standard Version. (I just finished Ephesians.) Not one of my favorite versions of the Bible, but I enjoy reading through different versions because something always jumps out at me that I've missed before.
Devotional: Send Out Your Light by Sandra McCracken. Another Christmas gift, this time from my husband. Lovely.
Theology: None Like Him: 10 Ways God is Different from Us by Jen Wilkin. Highly recommend.
Practical: Habits of the Household by Justin Whitmel Earley. Written, perhaps, for families with younger children than mine. (Or at least, mostly younger children.) But I'm reading it based on two things: I appreciate books about habit and liturgy in general and also, I still have some young children and it's never too late to start a new good thing.
Classic: Moby Dick by Herman Melville. I am one chapter in. Melville was a wordy guy.
Read Aloud: Miracles on Maple Hill by Virginia Sorensen to my 11 year old daughter at bedtime. Other various things for school time to the kids still elementary grades.
Audiobook: Still none. But my oldest daughter is trying really hard to convert me to this. She gets as many of her college texts on audio as she can and then she listens while working a puzzle or knitting. Audiobooks seem like a great tool but I just haven't found my own groove with them yet.
I'm keeping up with my Goodreads account more faithfully these days. I'd be happy to add a few more friends there as well so send me a request if we're not already linked up.
