Tamara Leigh's book Splitting Harriet are now in at the Borders store in Cool Springs. From now on the next months book should be there to buy at each meeting so you don't have to search everywhere for it. Make sure you plan on coming to Septembers meeting since we will have our first author. Bring a friend. I would love a good turn out since she is taking the time to come.
We had a great group at book club last week. I enjoyed everyone sharing their thoughts on what they liked and did not like. Thank-you for those who pointed out that some of the wrongs skimmed over in the story were not on target with conservative christian beliefs. I think in most Christian fiction you will always find some false something because all books are written by fallen people. We are all at different places in our christian walks as we discussed and that comes out even in good christian books. The thing I like most about the club is that it causes us to think, question, and reason. The same thing that Christ led people to do with the parables he taught in the New Testament. I feel often we as Christians fall short of analyzing things in our life and seeing if they line up with the things of Christ. Whatever we read, or watch we should ask ourself how does God want to use this in my life? How does this feed my soul?
Summer reading has sadly come to an end and busy Fall schedules have begun. Hopefully we will be able to fit in reading one book a month. I read a total of 14 books this summer. One would think I would be burnt out however, I am sad to know most of my fun reading is over for a while because my college class reading has started. I would like everyone to leave a comment on my blog page and share what your favorite book was you read this summer. Maybe those who still have time to read will find their next to be read book.
