The first book that I finished was Showdown By Ted Dekker. You can read Josh's recap of the book HERE so I won't write my own. He read it in just a couple of days after I was done with it, whereas I started it the summer Zeke was born and just now finished it while we were in the studio=) Hey, I reached my goal though...I finished the book!!
Second, I read the follow-up to Showdown called Saint. Ted is one of the best writers in my opinion. I love the way he weaves the gospel message in and out of his books. He also ties his books together somehow! I def. recommend ALL his books.
I'm not stopping here though! I am in the middle of a book I won on a cool blog called 1/2 Price Living by Ellie Kay. I CANNOT wait to tell you more about this one. She is talking about the benefits to living on 1 salary and giving practical advice to how it can work for you=) I'll be talking about this one more in the future.
I'll let you know when I finish this book and the next one I'm about to start called Skin. Pretty exciting.
I'll also be talking about our fun adventures from the last week and a half...pictures and all!!

Reading? You? Who would have thought. Yes, Tasha, I am proud of you - for so many reasons.
After reading House I never wanted to read another Ted Dekker book. Maybe I should give him another chance?
Tasha,
Since you and Josh like Ted Dekker's work have you seen where he wrote 4 more Circle Trilogy books? Also they made his book Thr3e into a movie. Pretty good stuff.
Way to go Tash...Fred is always reading as well. And like Josh, it's usually like 4 books at one time. He is also really good at reading during commercials or in busy atmospheres. Not me: I need pretty much silence if I'm reading anything with substance. I did just finish a book yesterday that you should check out: I think it's called Thorn in My Flesh...or something like that. It's by Somebody Higgs (I guess I could run into the other room and be a little more specific here:)!) Anyways, it's a spin off of the account of Jacob, Leah and Rachel but set in 1700 Scotland. Good stuff. I just started the sequel (don't ask me what it's called:)) HA!
Nice Tasha!! I am very proud of you and your Summer Reading List. Maybe I'll have one of those one day:)
I LOVE Ted Dekker!! If you haven't already... you need to read the Circle trilogy (Red, White and Black) Amazing, amazing series :)
While out in San Antonio, I finished three books in three days!
Craig Groeschel's "It"
Rob Bell's "Sex God"
and "The Shack"
I would recommend all three :)
