Summer is the time for reading! Read in the sun, read in the shade, read by the pool, read on the beach, read in the car, read… you get the idea.
The New Testament –Serisouly, everyone should read the New Testament once a year. Read the stories, read the letters, read the words. Let the verses sink in and be inspired. God’s Word is living and breathing.
Leave it to PSmith by P. G. Wodehouse – I usually read silently, but this book was so funny that I couldn’t stop laughing aloud as I read it. Every character was important, and each so unique in their own way. And all of them tied together with PSmith (the “p” is silent, as in “pshrimp”.)
Don’t Waste Your Life by John Piper – Thought provoking, challenging, inspiring. Each and every chapter is something that every adult and young adult should read and reread through their lifetime. A call to stand up and serve our God. Read this the year you turn 15 and every year after that.
Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens – No year would be complete with out a Dickens novel. This took me 2 months because of school work, but I finally finished it and I loved it. Possibly my favorite Dickens ever, competing with Tale of Two Cities. I will write a full review later.
WWII the Rest of the Story by Richard J. Maybury– I loved this book. And yes, I am somewhat of a conspiracy theorist. 🙂 You need to read this book, and the others in the series. Great additions to any homeschool bookshelf.
