2008 - A Year in Book Review

Since the weather outside is frightful, stay inside and curl up with a good book. Here is a sampling that I have read this year (and last year too). Some might even appeal to the male reader as well, some may not. :-)

These are ones I read for Bible Study or Sunday School:

• The Purpose Driven Life - Rick Warren
• The Bait of Satan - John Bevere (I highly recommend this one, especially if you are going into the ministry).
• Walking in Total God Confidence - Donna Partow
• His Needs, Her Needs - Willard F. Harley
• The Five Love Languages - Gary Chapman

Lori Wick is one of my favorite authors. She recently came out with a new series, Big Sky Dreams.

• Cassidy
• Sabrina
• Jessie

I have recently been bombarded with books about the Amish. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about their way of life and the way they believe. I by no means could become Amish, but I admire them.
Books by Beverly Lewis:

• The Shunning
• The Confession
• The Reckoning

Wanda Brunstetter,
Daughters of Lancaster County:

• Shopkeepper's Daughter
• Quilter's Daughter
• Bishop's Daughter

Brides of Lancaster County:

• The Hope Chest
• Plain and Fancy
• Looking for a Miracle
• A Merry Heart

Brides of Webster County:

• Going Home
• On Her Own

When I was in college I read the series by Gilbert and Lynn Morris, Cheney Duvall, MD. They are about one of the first female doctors in the US. Cheney is a fictional character of course and the books are medical mysteries about some diseases that we have found a cure for. But they are interesting none the less. The new series, The Shiloh Legacy, is about Cheney and her husband, Shiloh.

• Where Two Seas Meet
• The Moon by Night
• There is a Season

And I am currently reading another series by Gilbert Morris. I've only read the first book.

• What the Cat Dragged In.

Maybe over the next week and a half that's left of Christmas Break, I will be able to read more books. I hope so.
