Spring Reading Thing 2010

 
I enjoy reading, especially non-fiction (it will be obvious in my list :)).  I'm also a book reviewer for several publishers; therefore, most (if not all) of the following books will have my review of them eventually (I'll link the titles to my review posts when each one is ready).  Here is the list of books I plan to read this spring:

- On Guard (Defending Your Faith with Reason and Precision) by William Lane Craig
   Besides the Bible, apologetics books rank up there among my favorites :).

- What He Must Be (...if he wants to marry my daughter) by Voddie Baucham Jr.
   I'm reading this one with (to) my husband.

- Storylines (Your Map to Understanding the Bible) by Andy Croft and Mike Pilavachi

- 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad (What Fathers Can Do to Make a Lifelong Difference) by Jay Payleitner
   I'm a mom, but I'll be sharing the info. with my husband who is a dad.  My husband is too busy to read :).

- This Little Prayer of Mine by Anthony DeStefano, illustrated by Mark Elliot.  A picture book I'll be reading to my boys.
