This month we will start our buddy reads. That means that two or more people will join together to read and discuss a book.

The first book will be our book of the month from October, Chasing the Avatar. If you are interested in participating in this buddy read, join in the conversation and let us know in the comment section below.

Jacqueline Scifres (jacquelinescifres) I am already sucked into this series! I just want to sit and read it all the way through, but of course little ones don't allow me to do that anymore. :P

Michelle (numercies) | 16 comments The only way I am able to read is after they all go to sleep. I love to read before I go to bed anyway so it works out!

Michelle (numercies) | 16 comments What do you all like about the series so far? I found an interview with the author on line and it helped me understand her perspective better...after finishing book one I feel that God is sparking a renewed desire to know His mysteries and to live in The Spirit more consistently. It's like we know we should walk by faith and not by sight but we get so bogged down by our circumstances. Books like this are awesome reminders that Gods Kingdom DOES NOT operate as this world does.

Jacqueline Scifres (jacquelinescifres) I read when I can, but I agree... Before bed is the best time :) I am only 1/3 way trough book 1 and I am so drawn into it! I love the way the author writes. This is a book I would have never pegged as Christian or picked up to read on my own just by looking at the outside!!

Michelle (numercies) | 16 comments Jacqueline, that's exactly what I though when I saw the cover too!


message 10: by Jacqueline (new)

Jacqueline Scifres (jacquelinescifres) Was anyone else annoyed by the ma! Man? Or just me? I am so into this book and those parts just made it annoying to read. I get it and appreciate it.... Just really wanted him to stop talking! He

Michelle (numercies) | 16 comments The was probably annoyed so it definitely translated! :)

I agree. He was annoying and we got the point. I think that's one of the things that I like most about Jovan's books. We can experience what she was feeling because she is so descriptive.

Jacqueline Scifres (jacquelinescifres) I like the descriptions. I just try to say what that person was saying... to get an idea of what she was listening to. And I didn't want to listen anymore. :P
