I finished GRACE CAN LEAD US HOME: A CHRISTIAN CALL TO END HOMELESSNESS by @kevinmnye1. I loved reading about his life and the deep wisdom he shares from his experiences. I learned so much. Thank you, Kevin, for putting your entire heart into this book. https://t.co/UPJv6RxPJV

I rather incidentally read back to back RAGE BECOMES HER by Soraya Chemaly and OF BOYS AND MEN by Richard V. Reeves and my head is spinning, let me tell you. I wish I had a book club to talk about all this with.

Just finished reading THE CHOSEN by Chaim Potok. I don’t know why I waited so long to read it. The ending was excellent. As soon as I finished it, I ordered MY NAME IS ASHER LEV. Reading one good book makes me want to read another good book immediately.
