    I'm rereading far from the tree by a Drew Solomon

    http://www.farfromthetree.com/

    Our attitude toward identities and illnesses is forever shifting. Moments of explosive change sometimes come through scientific discovery, such as the finding of the genetic factors influencing autism, and sometimes through personal epiphany—finding deeper meaning in a punishing experience. Social change can also be achieved through a legal advance, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act.

    Sounds good, thank you!

    I'm halfway through A Feast For Crows (book 4) and something better happen soon. This book is dragging on unlike the others in the series.

    I can't wait for next Sunday to see how they finish up the third book! SO MUCH good stuff happens at the end of Storm Of Swords!

    Dominion - CJ Samsom
    An Alternative what if history that got a good review in the guardian so i loaded it on the e-reader (Libraries via E-reader are great)
    I also am part way through re-reading Last Exit To Brooklyn by Hubert Selby which was a pretty shocking book when it came out (1964) but sometimes seems dated now

    In the middle of a few
    Your Single Treasure by Rick Steadman Gives better reasons of waiting before marriage to have sex than the "because I said so" answer. 2 points that he makes is that ones virginity is their value. If you don't see it as valuable how can others see it as valuable. I can't sell a $2000 handcrafted dining room table for $300 and expect the other person to see it as valuable. The other point is to establish emotional intimacy beforehand which will strengthen the physical intimacy and vice versa.

    The other book I started yesterday is In the Backyard of Jesus by Steven N. Khoury A Arab pastor living under persecution in Jerusalam.

    and handwriting out Leviticus 24

    Hi Everyone!

    I'm currently re-reading The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon. This is a series of books in the Outlander Series: Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, Drums of Autumn, The Fiery Cross, A Breath of Snow and Ashes, and Echo in the Bone. Currently waiting for her next book of the series: Written in My Own Heart's Blood - coming out in June.

    These books are an exceptional read. I hope you will take advantage and read them as well. There will be a show coming out on the Starz network this summer some time. So I also look forward to that.

    Hope all is well.

    I am re-reading these as well for the 2nd time, currently on Dragonfly in Amber. Loved them the first time so had to read them again to be fully prepped for the series this summer & book 8 in June! I also just finished "Motherfumbler" by Vicky Murphy. She is a mommy blogger from my home province of Newfoundland & her hilarious take on mommyhood is awesome (as long as you don't get easily offended by foul language, she drops the F bomb a few times per page! lol)

    Re-reading the Left Behind series. I read them all when they first came out, and after college didn't touch a book for almost two years. I decided a few weeks ago that I would attempt to read again for fun, and since the series is an easy read, I picked them back up. Currently on book 6, Assassins.
