Moms Make Time to Read discussion

This is the place to discuss any books you are reading now, or ask for recommendations. Anything goes, so asking for kid reading lists is okay too!

To tag books in your reply -

If you are using the comment box at the bottom of the page, look just above the box. There's a link that says "add book/author." Just click that and a box will pop up where you can enter the name of the book and then click on the correct picture when it pops on the list.

You can choose just the text, like you see lots of here, or you can choose to add the cover photo instead. (Or you can do one, and then the other, but you have to do them separately. Choosing the cover will not also post the text title of your book.)

The book of Ezekiel in the bible. :)

Awesome!

I'm reading the New Testament through this year, and it's pretty easy - just a chapter each day of the week (not weekends) all year! So I started yesterday with Matthew ch1 and need to read ch2 today.

I'm reading a Jack Hayford study guide to go with it.

Still reading through The marriage you've always wanted : bible study, by Gary Chapman, as a buddy read with my hubby. ;) He finished it but needs to back and do the activities.

Need to read God's Chaos Candidate: Donald J. Trump and the American Unraveling; it's borrowed.
Need to read the Dutch SHeets book the pastor is telling us to all read. Angel Armies: Releasing the Warriors of Heaven

Need to read Shadow Boxing: The Dynamic 2-5-14 Strategy to Defeat the Darkness Within, another borrowed book.

I think I put my January reads down in the other plan/goal thread. I should probably abide by that. LOL

I just finished Chasing the North Star (not quite what I expected) and am now reading The Giver.

Currently reading:

I'm Not Wonder Woman, But God Made Me Wonderful by Sheila Walsh

A Shore Thing by Julie Carobini

Be Joyful by Warren Weirsbe

I haven't heard of Chasing the North Star, Melissa. What was it? What had you expected it was?


HAHA A wonder woman book. I should add it to my TBR. ;) I haven't heard of the rest of those, either, Cassandra.


BY THE WAY, did yall know you can tag a book? Chasing the North Star

It was about a runaway slave making his way North. The book was interesting, just a little more risque than I thought it needed to be.

Yes I saw the Wonder Woman book at the library and knew it was for me. I always joke that I have to take my cape off and try not to be Wonder Woman and do it all. It is actually a very good devotional.

The Julie Carobini book is a series and it is book 2. I just picked ook 1 random from the library and it was really good so now I want to finish books 2 and 3.

The Warren Weirsbe book was an Amazon freebie ebook and it is very good. All about Philippians and getting joy back by putting Christ first.

How do you tag books?

I'll edit the original post, but, to tag books - if you are using the comment box at the bottom of the page, look just above the box. There's a link that says "add book/author."

Melissa - Ah,I see. ;)

Teresa - Love your list! Intrigued... Either of those first two kindle books and thus lendable?? Huh? Huh?? (Like I need to add something else to my TBR. lol)

Thanks I see where to add the book/author now. Totally missed that before.

If you are like me, and are using your phone to update, the "add book" isn't there, but you can type [ book : (insert title here) ] without the spaces and it will link it also.

The first one is a paperback and the second one is on Audible otherwise I would be happy to share.

How is Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children? I've thought about adding that to my TBR list.

If I may jump in (I know the question wasn't directed at me directly). From what I understand, Miss Peregrine's is an aquired taste. I enjoyed it, but my sister did not (she felt the end was flat and predictable). I'd be curious what others think.

You are always welcome to answer a question I ask because I love getting feedback from multiple people about books.
