I read Ursula Under a few months ago, hadn't run into anyone else who read it until recently. I liked it rather well but it dragged in a few places. I've meant to find a bit more out about the author, I don't recall anything else by her.

Am reading The Romanov Prophecy. Its good for those who are history buffs and love suspence.



furrypurrykitty -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/7/2005 4:36:36 PM)

I'm reading a book called Being Dead Is No Excuse, a book about funeral customs in the Mississippi Delta. It's hilarious.



Hischild1994 -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/7/2005 4:41:06 PM)

Eyes at the Window by Evie Yoder Miller.
It's sort of a mystery and history book based on Amish folklore about an Amish infant who was murdered in the early 1800s.
Very interesting!

I just ordered "Rumors of another world" by Phillip Yancey. I was listening to Yancey being interviewed about this book and it sounded really great so I am looking forward to reading it. Has anyone else read this book?



floydette -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/10/2005 12:32:56 PM)

Wow. I haven't heard of that one, but it sounds good!

I am reading:

[sm=icon_smile_fish.gif]Right now I'm reading Prisoners of hope by Dayna Curry and Heather Mercer. They were the two women that was held by the Taliban when 9/11 happened. It the story about what they were doing there and what went on while they were in captivity in Afghanistan. It is a really good book.

I really like Phillip Yancey's writing, and I took the plunge and bought a copy of this to give to an overly educated agnostic relative who'se kind of sceptical about this God thing. I read the first chapter in the bookstore, and it was very good. I hope you find it so!



KarenElissaB -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/12/2005 12:46:40 AM)

I'm almost done with "The Call" by Os Guinness. It is a pretty good book, some stuff applies to me right now and some doesn't but oh well. [sm=icon_smile.gif]

I just bought "Church in Emerging Culture: Five Perspectives" by Leonard Sweet, Andy Crouch, Brian D. McLaren, Erwin Raphael McManus, Michael Horton, and Frederica Matthewes-Green. I'm really excited about this one. Each person writes a chapter with their view on how we do or don't change the methods/message to relate to our time. But it is neat because the other people have little comments with in the chapter so it is like a conversation.



Auben -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/12/2005 10:54:28 AM)

Wanderingone,

I think she has a website. Ingridhill.com

The only other stuff she has out is a book of short stories.



Jar-of-clay -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/13/2005 12:47:21 AM)

I am currently reading the book Jesus Freaks. It is a very inspiring book about christians from the time of Paul to currently, who are persicuted for their faith in Jesus Christ. [:o]



FromTheMargins -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/13/2005 11:45:17 AM)

Thanks for this thread! I read all of the replies and have a nice little "must read" list going.

I am currently not reading anything... Which is rare for me. But, I think I hit a skid where I had read and re-read everything in my collection that I was inclined to. I need some fresh material.

From The Margins



BrianB -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/17/2005 12:39:00 AM)

I'm reading a couple of non-fiction books. One is The Circumnavigators and the other is British Seapower.



followingHim -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/17/2005 2:01:12 AM)

The New Testament and The People of God by N.T. Wright and The Triumph of Faith in Habbakuk by Donald E. Gowan.



mpaulm -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/18/2005 2:10:37 PM)

Currently, "The Institutes of the Christian Religon" by John Calvin.



stateofgrace -> RE: What Are You Currently Reading? (7/18/2005 2:21:53 PM)

Ted Dekker's Circle Trilogy. Finished Black this weekend, have just started on Red.

I'm surprised that I've liked it so much so far! Books A Milllion has a sale on a bunch of Christian fiction, and I'd been thinking about reading these for a while. Very much in the sci-fi/fantasy genre, although by the last third of Black some of the Christian allegory was getting rather obvious.

So was I, but once I got used to the shifting between worlds I couldn't put it down. All three are very well written.

I'm reading "So Long and Thanks For All the Fish", vol. 4 of the Hitchiker's Guide "trilogy".
