There's a new "gadget" on the side of my blog, in place of my old To-Do list, titled "Summer Reading." Reading for fun is probably one of my most-anticipated parts of summertime. What with travel and youth ministry, I sometimes don't have as much time to do it as I dreamily imagine during the school year, but I still can get through a lot.
So I've listed some books I'm thinking about reading/rereading this summer, but I am also SUPER open to SUGGESTIONS!!!
WHAT SHOULD I READ??
You're going to LOVE A Severe Mercy, especially after Oxford. You should read Tess of the D'Urbervilles if you haven't already. And Captain Corelli's Mandolin--just finished that and was blown away.
ReplyDeleteKeep blogging, too, lady.
Apparently you should read the great gatsby. ;)
ReplyDeleteOhmygoodness HANNAH.
ReplyDelete1. I agree with Kate. YES. You will adore A Severe Mercy. A change-your-life book for me. We've gotta talk about this. Skype!?
2. Communion with God: YES. Let me know if you want me to send you my copy (abridged, but very well-loved.:))!
I just realized I said "YES" in call caps twice right there. Kind of silly. But I'm really excited about what you're reading. Really.
ReplyDeleteANNA!!! There is absolutely nothing wrong with saying "YES" a whole whole lot. In fact, people should do it more.
ReplyDeleteOoooooooh......it would be pretty AWESOME to have your copy of Communion with God. My dad has a copy, but I can't take it to Baton Rouge with me cuz he needs it. If you ever get around to it, SEND IT! But if you don't, I'll definitely figure something out. :) I know it's kind of hard to get packages sent (and expensive!).
YES. SKYPE. Some time this week?
Han, I know your list is probably full, but I thought I'd officially put these in black and white so you can put them on your reading Bucket List.:) The Scent of Water by Elizabeth Goudge, Gold Cord by Amy Carmichael.
