O...Should I mention that I love North and South? ;)<br />Over a year ago I was wanting to read The Portrait of a Lady but someone convinced me not to. :P Now that I have heard, from you, that it is actually quite good I shall definitely add it to my reading list once again. :) <br />Anyway I have been reading The Circle Trilogy by Ted Dekker. I'm on the third book, White. Love the series!<br />Also I recently finished the Mark of the Lion series by Francine Rivers! I absolutely adored those books! It had some wonderful fictional role models! <br />Soon, very soon, I shall get back to the classics though. :)<br />God bless!<br />-BookwormBookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11643534187924659467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863271505161273073.post-76621340426180426352012-04-21T19:31:06.471-04:002012-04-21T19:31:06.471-04:00Wyatt Fairlead!

Haven't read Lord Tony's Wife--you'll have to tell me how you liked it! <br /><br />As for the rest of you, thanks a million for telling me and leaving me all these comments--your answers are so widely varied they were a pleasure to read!<br /><br />@Elizabeth Rose, you must tell me how you like Rebecca. The writing is impeccable. The subject made me furious by the end. :P <br /><br />@Colleen, I loved Christy! It inspired me deeply and passionately. Love it. :)Rachel Heffingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08383034249438542111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863271505161273073.post-8071920129461478322012-04-21T17:55:45.629-04:002012-04-21T17:55:45.629-04:00P.S.

I am "reading" all manner of things in that I have many dusty tomes waiting for me to crack their bindings and finally *finish* them (*cough* <i>The Fellowship of the Ring</i> and <i>Les Miserables</i>), but the only title I am actively reading at the moment is <i>Rebecca</i> by Daphne du Maurier. It has a tendency to be rather eerie in places, but it's quite intriguing, and I confess I am enjoying it, if only for the experience of a different writing style. Of course, I will also sporadically pick up an <i>Anne</i> book or <i>Little Women</i> and re-read my favorite passages, but that is a common occurence and not at all out of the ordinary. ;)<br /><br />I hope you're having a lovely Saturday, dear friend!<br /><br />Elizabeth Rose<br /><br />P.S. Yes, I did catch the N&S reference in the title . . . It also put me in mind of Perchiek's proposal to Hodel in <i>Fiddler on the Roof</i>. <i>"There's a question . . . A certain question I want to discuss with you . . . It's a political question."</i> :DChloe M.

I find most people don't care two-cents for it, I however find the realness of the characters and the blue-swathed mountains steal me (body and soul). Read it and judge for yourself. <br /><br />Before that I read "8 Cousins" and it's sequel "A Rose in Bloom" by L. M. Alcott-- two lovely little novels. The first actually reminded me of your story Scarlet Gypsy Song (what I've read on here of it that is) with all the children tripping over each other in charm and personality.Colleen Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09890492284718889123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863271505161273073.post-57194311236790787982012-04-21T13:46:16.074-04:002012-04-21T13:46:16.074-04:00I'm reading Remembering You by Tricia Goyer an...I'm reading Remembering You by Tricia Goyer and Elisabeth Sladen: An Autobiography by Elisabeth Sladen.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16850805390410966478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863271505161273073.post-47569961853663063552012-04-21T11:59:38.653-04:002012-04-21T11:59:38.653-04:00I'm reading a mix of books.

I just finished <i>The Gammage Cup</i> for the nth time (one day I will have it memorized) and <i>A Break With Charity,</i> a novel of the Salem witch trials, which I read years ago and felt like rereading. In keeping with the seventeenth century, I picked up <i>Down Ryton Water</i> again, which I read as a child many times, lost, and found again. I love the colour and style of the narrative and diction in <i>Down Ryton Water;</i> it is easy to follow, written in the first person, but it's not simplistic nor does it coddle the reader. If you have a chance, I recommend it for light, enjoyable reading.<br /><br />On a more serious note, I'm also reading <i>The Challenge of Jesus</i> by N.T. Wright, <i>The Doctrine of the Holy Spirit</i> by Hendrikus Berkhof, and Thomas a Kempis' <i>Of the Imitation of Christ</i> as a sort of "devotional." I recently finished <i>The Faith of a Modern Christian</i> by James Orr and have been discovering Ravi Zacharis; both authors were and are in the apologetic vein. I hope to pick up A.W. Tozer's <i>Jesus, Our Man In Glory</i> soon: as twelve addresses on the Letter to the Hebrews, I expect it will be short reading, but hopefully true and edifying. It <i>is</i> Tozer, after all...Jenny Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18019561431799543099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6863271505161273073.post-18945998914155487502012-04-21T06:57:42.832-04:002012-04-21T06:57:42.832-04:00By the Pricking of My Thumbs: Agatha Christe
