I don't have a summer list going yet, but I do have a significant stack of books I've been claiming I'm going to read for the last two years sitting on a shelf staring me down. Maybe I'll start there. =D

I love to get lost in fiction (even when I've already read a story before), so the stack of non-fiction gets pushed to the wayside.

On that note, I've had Whose Waves These Are for two days now and I absolutely cannot put it down! I'm already halfway through it, have laughed, and cried, exclaimed out loud, and cried some more.

Life is big. And God is bigger. <3 Thank you for the recommendation.

On my list for this summer is Fatherland by Burkhard Bilger. It is his family story of his grandfather who was a part of the Nazi Party and his turning from that evil. Beyond Colorblind by Sarah Shin. She writes about race relation from a Christian point of view. I just finished a book by the former director of women’s magazines ministry at the church where I work. It is called The Woodbine Chronicles. Her name is Suzanne Stelling. She and her husband chose to leave behind ( in her words ) the white, affluent part of town they lived in to move to the inner city so they could just love on the people in that neighborhood. It’s a wonderful, eye opening book. And of course lots of fiction.
