I love reading. It gives me different kind of excitement to read a book especially if it is suspense. I love hard-to-put-down books.
Sometimes, I would quote some lines and use them in my daily dealing with life.
Book is powerful. I believe it can inspire you or crush you. It can influence you or disappoint you. Book has a life of it's own and so it can give people life too.
One book that totally change my view about my faith and history is the Fraternity of the Rose by Umberto Eco. I don't know but I just love it. I gives me an idea on how to view history in a different light... and my faith in a different level.
I'm reading "5 people you meet in heaven" by Mitch Albom right now. What's yours?

Right now I'm reading "IT" by Stephen King. Long book. Good though. I'm about half way through or so. I hope to finish it in the next couple of weeks.

I read Crime and Punishment in college. It was a requirement for my English class for book review. Honestly, I was able to submit the book review but I can't remember what was it all about. I guess I need to re-read it. thanks.

Right now I am reading Tell No One by Harlan Coben. So far it is really a good book. My mom loves the book 5 people you meet in Heaven. Have you read Tuesday's with Morry? That is also by Mitch Albom. It is a fantastic book.

Right now, I am reading "Quiet Strength". It is the life story of coach Tony Dungy. He is such a man of great faith and he is so humble. It is amazing to read how he has grown so much as a coach in the NFL and how he allows his faith to be what shines through. He is a wonderful person and a great coach!!

Wow, I might try to look for that book. I don't really know about football until I came here to US... or at least I believe I know something but what I really know is I enjoy watching football with my husband. And it is the only sports I can watch from start to finish. thanks.
