I am now reading The Mind Connection by Joyce Meyer, Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeust, Anne of Green Gables by Lucy M. Montgomery and The Fringe Hours by Jessica N. Turner.
I cannot stick to just one book. They are all good reads so far but I am enjoying the non-fiction more, right now.

Recently finished Vanished by Tess Gerrittsen.
Now trying to read Trauma by Michael Palmer and Daniel Palmer. So far it is interesting (fiction) but I am having trouble focusing because of all the things I should be doing.

Not a Fan: Becoming a Completely Committed Follower of Jesus
by Kyle Idleman
"Are you a follower of Jesus? Don't answer too quickly. In fact, you may want to read this book before you answer at all.
Consider it a 'Define the Relationship' conversation to determine exactly where you stand. You may indeed be a passionate,
fully devoted follower of Jesus. Or, you may be just a fan who admires Jesus but isn't ready to let him cramp your style."

The Perks of Being a Wallflower....
now a movie also.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a coming-of-age epistolary novel by American writer Stephen Chbosky, which was first published on February 1, 1999, by Pocket Books. Set in the early 1990s, the novel follows Charlie, an introverted teenager, through his freshman year of high school in a Pittsburgh suburb. The novel details Charlie’s unconventional style of thinking as he navigates between the worlds of adolescence and adulthood, and attempts to deal with poignant questions spurred by his interactions with both his friends and family.
