Books, Books, Books - What a Good Year 2009

So many books, so little time!! The year 2009 was a good year for reading. I will finish with almost 63 books read. You meet so many new people that become like family. And you travel to places that you have never been to before. All you need is time and a library full of good books.

In the Non Fiction category, these are the best read this year:
1. Same kind of Different as You - Ron Hall & Denver Moore - a true story of how Christ changed the lives of a homeless man and a volunteer at the shelter.
2. Escape From the Deep - Alex Kershaw
3. The Rescue - Steven Trent Smith
4. Doctor to the Resistance - Hal Vaughn
These three books are about WWII - stories of courage, honor, and sacrifice, and pain and imprisonment.

In the Fiction Category there were lots of good books. My favorite five were:
1. Hi Honey, I'm Home - Linda Windsor
2. Tending Roses - Lisa Wingate
3. The Wednesday Letters - Jason Wright
4.The Mermaid Chair - Sue Monk Kidd
5. The Last Song - Nicholas Sparks

The three"W's"(Windsor, Wingate, Wright) are my favorite authors for the year. All together I read 13 books by these authors. Their stories are excellent and tell a Christian viewpoint.

Everyone has their own favorite books and authors. My list reflects my taste. Some like chocolate and some like vanilla! Read a book - your choice!
