This is starting out to be a year of reading books. Last year circumstances dictated that I listen to books while driving to Wyoming and North Dakota. The driving days are pretty much over, so it's back to the old fashioned paper books.
I've found it useful to keep track of the books I've read, and thought it might be useful for you to see the list and my impressions of each book. As I finish more books the plan is to review them. Perhaps I will. Maybe you'll be interested in reading one of them. Maybe you have another recommendation.
There are several books on the shelf right now, some I've started, others are just home from the library. One that jumped off the shelf into my hands was Little Book of Atheist Spirituality. Who knows? Then there's the Limits to Growth - 30 Year Update. That one reminds me a lot of Children of Men and Soylent Green.
Below are the books from this year, so far. Each has been good in it's own way. Have you read any of them? (I know Linn and Rogene have, because they loaned me their copies.)
The other night Judy and I went to a concert by the Blind Boys of Alabama. Best concert we've been to in twenty years. Had to buy one of their albums. Glad we did. These guys are older then the hills. The three singers were with the original group that started in 1939. Wonderful gospel tunes. And blind they are!
Watch this space to see what happens. I may be more focused in the next post.
