The Gunslinger from The Dark Tower Series, its not at all what i was expecting

I'm currently reading "Darwin's Doubt", by Stephen C. Meyer. A really cool debunking of traditional Darwinian evolution, though he gets a bit too "lost in the details" sometimes with unexplained complex terms that make it a bit hard to follow.

If you think it's weird now, just wait... The series just gets weirder and weirder.

The bible when I do my devotions, and follow along at church; I also read my comics that I made myself.

The only book I really read is the Bible tbh. I'm not much of a book worm.

I have so many books in my reading /read list.
The Bible of course, though honestly I don't read it nearly as much as I should.

Well below that I've recently picked up a copy of 1984 / Animal Farm. I hear all the 'That's like 1984' stuff and while generally agreeing I realized I've never actually read it myself to know for sure. Soo, that is now on my list.

My preference is sci fi, though I'll dip into urban fantasy occasionally as there are some good reads there. But A *really* good space sci fi series is the Honor Harrington Series (or Honorverse) which starts off with On Basilisk Station and is currently on book 16 I think with multiple spin offs as well. Fleet battles and high tech and even well reasoned technical progression abound.

Percy Jackson

Alden Amos' Big Book of Spinning

I enjoy spinning yarn from wool, silk, flax and any other fiber i can

I don't read to much

I'm reading "Praying the Lord's Prayer for Spiritual Renewal", by Elmer Towns. It's a book meant for a bit of study, with questions and journaling prompts at the end of each chapter (there's an entire chapter dedicated to each line of the Lord's Prayer). Some of the stuff is quite basic, but there's some gold nuggets here and there that I had never thought about that makes you appreciate the structure of the Lord's Prayer even more. There's also a lot of great little memorable sayings which are cool. That said, the quote on the cover from Billy Graham that it will "Change your prayer life!" is a bit much, though of course your mileage may vary.

I just finished an old Taylor Caldwell novel called Glory and the Lightning about ancient Greece. It's the subject of Pericles and his heraterai Aspasia. (This was a woman between a wife and a mistress in the time- she bore him children but he could not legally marry her because she was from a different country). Both were some of the most influential thinkers of 5th century B.C. Athens. It's not explicitly Christian, but the third part of the book involves a great deal of discussion about 'the Unknown God.' It's a long book, but I found myself not wanting it to end.

Now I'm reading "Truth Bombs: The Lies Conservatives Believe To Our Own Demise" by Steve Deace. Pulls no punches; really tough (yet truthful) book. Revival or bust, folks, revival or bust.

Right now I'm working on Black by Ted Dekker.

I say working on it because Its a physical book and I got spoiled by reading books electronically. And I mostly read my novels before I got to be. But with no book lamp for my paper books, I hardly read it.

But is a good book so far and I plan on reading the whole series.

I recently finished The Outsiders.
