Broken Leg Books

While me leg is healing, I am forced to read 3 books at one time....not my forte. But I can't bring a book with me from here to there with my crutches. So:



Breaking Dawn #4 in the Twilight series. I am really enjoying it. A bit too much teenage angst for me, but it is a quick, easy read. That book is at my bed. I will be done soon.



I FINISHED! It was good. If you like the twilight series you will like this book. The author ties up all loose ends. It is a big, long book, but an easy read.

What kind of name is Renesme??

P.S. While watching "The People's Court" the other day, one of the complainers was named ESME!!




At the Couch: The Last Lecture. I have only read a little of this, but I really am enjoying it. Recommend to all!

FINISHED: I really enjoyed this book. Great ideas. Great to think about. He knew how to make life a joy, have fun in the face of sad circumstances.

Read this.

In the bathroom: My Soul To Keep
I just saw this at the library (before the break), I was desperate, thought I'd try it. It is a Christian book, I think. A big movie star gets caught up in drinking and drugs, ends up in jail for 5 years, gets out, acts in local, city things, trying to do what's right in life. Interesting, but compared to "Breaking Dawn", it is a bit slow.

FINISHED! I really enjoyed this book! I enjoyed the Christian take on life. It was a nice change. The book puts 2 projects up against each other. One, regular Hollywood, the other being done by a new Christian group. They begin their meetings with prayer, sometimes a devotional! They pray for each other, care about each other, are willing to forgive and help. If only all the world would begin and end the things they do in prayer, how great that would be! It was also a tiny look into the movie-making world. I enjoyed that too. I would read this author again. Interesting note, the other day, while at the doctor to get my cast on, a woman began a conversation with me about my leg. She asked all about it. At the end, she told, I will pray for you. In light of this book, where they have many prayer circles, I appreciated her comments. It was a way better thing to say than, oh, you are a dork.
