I LOVE The Great Gatsby! I'm currently reading Can I be Frank? and a colleague has sent me Herodotus but that's very slow going!

Latest Review: Illustrated Short Fiction of William H. Coles: 2000-2016 by William H. Coles

Kind is the New Classy by Candace Cameron Bure ❤️ She sent 2 free books to those on her Street Team to help promote it. This is the second book we received plus some other goodies. I like it so far!

Right now I'm reading The Name of Wind by Patrick Rothfuss and so far am loving it. I'm only about 150 pages in so far but I have never read something with such beautiful visual descriptions. He really knows how to bring a scene to life and bring a soul and meaning into what he writes. Honestly Rothfuss could right an entire book only detailing the suns journey across the sky and I'd read it cover to cover.

I'm reading a couple of books right now, including one called Living by the Book by Howard G. Hendricks. It's about Interpreting the Bible.

If it is a book to be reviewed, then I am not reading any. I just completed reading the book 'Gates to Tangier' by Mois Benarroch.

I am currently reading "On Writing" by Stephen King. It is already blowing me away, so I would highly recommend it. He has a way with words, that's for sure.

Currently reading The Story of Edgar Sawtell. There were soo many high profile reviews and I'm not impressed thus far. Great language and scene description but a real snoozer!
