                    I have read one John Piper books, Brothers, We are not Professionals. Piper talked about how to be the Good Pastor and how it's very different with the professionals..
But, I haven't finished it yet:(

                    I just finished Odd Forever.  It was good but not as good as Odd Thomas.  When I read Odd Thomas it made me cry and I threw the book across the room.  My family thought I had lost it that day.

                    I haven't read for a long time. The book that i remind i have read as being the las is a book of Honore de Balzac called Beatrix or Eugenie Grandet. Both of the books are great books with a good story and a good subject too. You should defenetly give them a try. Good luck and read as much as you can!

                            i will definitely try to read the books. previously i used to read a lot, now i have lost touch, hoping to start again. i feel there is no substitute to books.

                    Gone with the wind is a great novel! I recently read The Time Traveler's Wife for the second time and am in the process of reading through The Complete Tightwad Gazette. In our household, most of us are voracious readers! Have you tried paperbackswap.com? It's a great way to get books free and to share books with others just for the cost of postage. I've been a member for awhile and I love it! You might want to check it out. If you join, please put boydda@gmail.com as your referrer. No, I don't get any money if you use me as the referrer so don't think that's why I'm telling you about it. I do get credit toward books, though, and that's always a good thing. :)
Also, have you used bookcrossing.com? That's another of my favorite book sites!

                    Let's see. I just finished reading _The Truth_ by Terry Pratchett. Before that I read _Nickle and Dimed_. And right now I am wading through _Quicksilver_ by Neal Stephenson. Which is incredibly dense but extremely enjoyable!
I like to alternate my "light" reads with my heavy ones.
