To Elise: You can hijack this blog any time!! I can't believe that I left out the Home to Harmony series of books by Philip Gurley. Love every book! Great story telling. A lot like the Mitford series, which I love, too! Must be gettin' old. "The Postcard" is a wonderful book as well. (I like book about Amish people and their culture.)
My wife's favorite is "The Blue Bottle Club". She doesn't do a lot of reading, but she loves that one! Everyone she has recommended it to has brought back a favorable response.
I've been listening to the book of Ezekiel from the "Bible Experience". Pretty cool. The Bible Experience was recorded by African American actors, which bothers me a little bit -but I've really enjoyed what little I've heard so far. I put it on my iPod which makes the Bible easier to listen to while I work or walk. You can get each book by itslef off iTunes without buying the whole Bible. Each book is $3.95. Check it out!
Hope your new year is off to a good start.

Why does it bother you that it was recorded by African American actors?
Cody, Because it was only African American actors. Just seem exclusive to me. BTW - white actors have now recorded the Bible as well. Why couldn't they have done one together - and included other races as well? Just seemed a little silly to me to exclude other races. Maybe it wasn't. I do enjoy it - was just interjecting a personal opinion.
Why would any self-respecting man read a book by a guy named Gurley?
