I’ve been reading tons but haven’t really taken the time to write about what I’ve been reading, so here’s a quick run down. July Book Club: The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown – I really liked the premise of this book – three sisters end up back at home when their mother gets sick. Their [...]

Alright. I really wasn’t planning on ever reading this book. I know. That’s awful to type out loud, but I have an incredibly low tolerance for cheesy Christian books. Blasphemy, right?

To prepare for the recently released movie, our book club decided to read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. This book falls in the category of a classic children’s book but also the genre of literary nonsense, which we discovered as we were discussing the book together.

I’m ashamed. It has taken me so long to write up a review of Crazy Love, by Francis Chan. I mean. Really. It’s a book that changed my life. Honestly. And I know several others that have been radically challenged by this book. I have read this book twice now. Once with my group of [...]
