“I have always imagined paradise will be a kind of library.” I hope you find a corner in Paradise with some great books!!

i just finished Dracula. I was unable to read for more than 5 minutes a day in May and June because if eye problems, so it slowed me down. I'm all better now, so hopefully I can pick up the readinf.

Glad you're feeling better Alison! Happy reading!

How did you like Dracula?

it was pretty good. I had just heard some of the story before, so I thought about half of the book drug on. But in the end everything tied together.

Yes I felt that way too!

I finally finished book 12. The Case for a Creator. I’m gonna give it 2 stars since it picked back up at the end. About 1/4 of the book was pretty boring. When I got about 50 pages in or so I had already got the question answered if God created the universe. So then I got bored. The rest of the book was backing up that point. The astronomy and biology/neurology parts were very interesting and why I’m giving it 2 stars instead of 1.
