This page has two lists: a list of books I’m currently reading, followed by a list of my favorites. I always read more than one book at a time. I don’t read like a normal person… must be ADD. Feel free to read along or chat me about any of these. I like to talk books!

So what is Eve and the choice made in heaven about? Is it a C.S. Lewis type of book?

I love The Talisman, too! Not many people know about it, but it’s so brilliant. I need to read it again. Apparently they’re still trying to make a movie or mini-series out of it. They’d better not ruin it, that’s all I’ve got to say. I still have my 20 year old copy…

@Stephanie- During my teen years, I read The Talisman over and over as my means of escape from a cruel step-father. I love, love, love that book. The Black House (the sequel) came out several years ago and I’ve tried to read it a couple times, but haven’t been able to get through it. It’s just not the same. But I’ve always wanted a best friend who was secretly a werewolf, and for a while I would try to slide the phrase “God pounds his nails” into conversations… it was awkward.
