  • Girls, Siestas, we have us a challenge. I was visiting Barb at Chelsea Morning and realized I had not signed up for the Fall reading challenge at Callerpidder Days. I love to read and I usually have 2 books going at once. There is nothing like reading a good book outside by the pool on a cool fall day. So, if you are up to the challenge, head on over and sign Mr. Linky and post your books. There are a few books that I bought that I haven't read yet and my friend Kelly bought me a book a year ago that I started and really want to finish. After I am finished I am going to give my books away. I would love to pass them along to someone who would like to read them.


    So here is my list: Redeeming Love, Francine Rivers, Fame by Karen Kingsbury, The Prayer that Changes Things by Stormie Omartian. I am sure I will add others but for now this is what I am starting with. Happy Reading!!!

    Additions: The Choice by Nicholas Sparks and Holy Ambition , What it takes to make a difference for God. by Chip Ingram.

    REVIEWS
    REVIEWS: I wanted to go ahead and review the first book I have finished. It is The Prayer that Changes Things, the Hidden Power of Praise, If you struggle with your quiet time, or praying, I am asking you to please get this book in your hands. It has wonderful insight from Stormie, she shares a lot from her past and there are great quotes from many people, prayers to pray after each section to help you praise God, discussion questions after each section. This book is loaded with tons of scripture. This has truly been a blessing to me and I enjoy spending time in it with God. We are having fun at times, serious business the next minute. You know what I mean. :o)

    Fame, by Karen Kingsbury, I just finished this book tonight. It was a great read BUT I am not finished with the series yet. The next book in this series Forgiven. I am going to buy the book tomorrow. I will write more tomorrow about Fame. If you haven't read it I recommend this book!!

Im with Patti...living in Wisconsin I wont be by the pool.

But Redeeming Love is an awesome book. And if you havent read Randy Alcorn's Safetly Home you should defintley add it to your list.

I love reading so its nice to stumble onto fellow readers. Thanks for the titles.

I absolutely LOVED Redeeming Love! I don't know how to do the linky things or I might attempt to join you, busy as my life is... I usually have two or three books going at a time as well. Right now I'm reading "Covenant Child" (Terri Blackstock) and "The Practice of the Presence of God" (Brother Lawrence).

I just found your blog though a Beth Moore site. We recently started a new study at our church. She is wonderful.

Regarding books, Charles Martin is a great Christian fiction author. I just finished "When Crickets Cry." I started with "Wrapped in Rain" and decided then I would read everything he writes.
