Spring Reading Thing

I LOVE to read - it is my worst vice!

My "To Be Read" Pile threatens to take over the nightstand, the drawers, and the floor around. Okay, it is not quite that bad...unless you ask Mr. Pear, so because I love him, and because I love to read, I am making a serious and honest effort to get through my TBR pile.

Right now I have a ton of nonfiction books I want to read, but I cannot decide which 5 to rank at the top for the Spring Reading Thing. So this is technically my spring and summer reading list - although I am certain books will move in and out of this list depending on my mood! Also, I am awaiting a delivery from CDB and expect to be adding at least two more books to this list.

So without further babbling....

My Spring Reading thing List is:

Feminine Appeal by Carolyn Mahaney (Just started on Sunday)
I am really enjoying this book, and am being blessed tremendously through it.

Keep a Quiet Heart (In process, I read an article and put it aside then pick it up and read another article....)

Spiritual Direction: Wisdom for the Long Walk of Faith

Silent Music: The Life, Work, and Thought of st John of the Cross

The Ministry of Motherhood: Following Christ's Example in Reaching the Hearts of Our Children

Questioning Evangelism (This was a Christmas gift from a dear friend and is about using questions to engage in discussions about faith, kind of like Jesus did. It is NOT about questioning the validity of Evangelism, even though that is what the title seems to imply.)

Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth

Rediscovering Catechism: The Art of Equipping Covenant Children

The Quest for Meekness and Quietness of Spirit (Puritan Writings)

I am looking forward to reading all these books for very different reasons, and will probably post reviews as I finish them as I had wanted to do that on this blog any ways, so now I have two reasons to do it - that should keep me honest! :-)

Happy Spring, Happy Reading!
