Book Update

As of February 9, 2010 I have read six books and am in the middle of number seven! I'm one book ahead of schedule, so I'm feeling really good about my resolution.

I am currently reading Walking the Bible: A Journey by Land Through the Five Books of Moses. This book was made into a PBS documentary special which I plan to watch after I'm done with the book. So far, meh. It's a very interesting idea and the book overall is great, but there are so many details that it makes it too hard to read. I feel like I have to constantly look at a map, or know my Middle East geography. There are so many names and dates and locations, it's like taking a history class. So, if that's what you're in to, then this book is for you!

So far, I've read:

My Sister's Keeper
The Lovely Bones
When You Are Engulfed In Flames
The Hobbit
The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible
The Pleasure of My Company

Next up: Darkly Dreaming Dexter. This is the series that the Showtime series Dexter is based on. I'm so excited!! I need something different that doesn't follow Bible stories...
