Book Challenges

I've heard of book challenges where you read one book for each letter of the Alphabet, either using the book title or the author's first or last name. I think this would be a lot of fun! After I get done with my "to be read" list, I want to try it!

The Kingdom and the Crown Series

Fishers of Men
This is the first book in "The Kingdom and the Crown" series by Gerald Lund. It is a historical fiction book. It takes place in the time of Christ and follows a fictional family's story. It is quite a large book. It starts of kind of slow, but by about half way through really picks up!
The second book is Come Unto Me. It is also very good!
I just checked out the third book Behold the Man. I'm anxious to get started on it.
I highly recommend these books!

What I'm reading

So I've recently discovered the wonderful public library! I used to read a ton when I was in elementary/high school, and I haven't really read a lot since then. So, now that I go to the library once a week, I want to keep track of what I'm reading. I'm going to try and do at least one post on each book I read...and maybe I'll have Josh and Lindsay contribute too!
